About the Initiative

• Mission: These women are rarely given a chance to escape and, when they do get the chance, they RUN for it!
• Support: The Phoenix Phase Initiative provides a place for these women to run to, where they can be accepted, receive counseling, and learn job skills.
• Learn More: Visit www.phoenixphaseinitiative.org or watch our video at YouTube.
