On April 29^th & 30^th Phoenix Programs participated in SAMHSA’s Services in Supportive Housing Annual Grantee Conference. James Kimbro, David Helling, Eskil Hudson, and Steve Jones attended as participants of the Modified Therapeutic Community/Supportive Housing Program that is funded by the SAMHSA grant. Phoenix Programs is one of the first nine recipients of this grant, and as such was able to offer guidance to the now 77 total recipients of the grant that were in attendance at the conference.

Presentations attended included: Trauma Informed Care, Motivational Interviewing, Health Care Reform and it effect on permanent supportive housing, and Grants Management. Great focus was placed on “The Power of Community” and the use of Peer Support Specialists to better help our consumers and facilitate the community of recovery structure.

Phoenix Programs is one of the few grant recipients that has already put the use of the Peer Support Specialist into action, further demonstrating that we are trailblazers in the field of substance abuse and mental illness treatment services.
