To all Phoenix Staff

From Elizabeth Church, Chair, Phoenix Board

It is so impressive that, despite the many challenges and changes in our environment, you are continuing to maintain all Phoenix programs - supporting youth in the residences, offering virtual therapy, reaching out to youth, helping them navigate the intricacies of the new government financial assistance programs, and making sure that youth, their families, and the community have access to the food, supplies, and services they need.

Phoenix has always stepped forward and responded to needs in the community. And you are continuing to do it today. In these unsettling and stressful times, the support and care you are giving to youth, their families, and communities are even more essential.

I know that each of you has had to make major adjustments and changes in order to maintain the extraordinary and special work you do. I hope that you are taking the time to take care of yourselves as well.

Phoenix lives the maxim that we’re all in this together.

With my deepest appreciation for everything you are doing.

Thank you!
