It appears by the address that the "Phoenix Institute for Adolescents Inc" has changed it's name to
"Phoenix Program of GBCH and FM Inc."

Old name: http://www.emory.edu/CRL/abb/IR/AIRS98/ ... c1/a94.htm

New name: http://www.twitterlocal.net/Marietta-GA ... 067880157/

I tried to call but the number is busy, probably due to after hours. (770) 514-8255

I could not find a website for this program. I am mainly trying to find out if it is still open.

Their website used to be... http://www.phoenixinc.org

As of this post, this website is currently "disabled."

Back in 2010, it appears to have belonged for a time to a "nationally recognized oilfield construction firm" going by the name of "The Phoenix, Inc." Services included: "road construction, tank batteries, site construction, compressor installation and more."

In 2005, the website was parked.

But way back in the late 1990s, it belonged to "The Phoenix Institute for Adolescents, Inc.," a drug and alcohol treatment program.

Thanks Ursus! This really helps. I will pass it along. I found a good solid page mentioning phase levels and host homes on the 1998 page. Very cool. That's what I was looking for. Now I just wonder where this program is and what it is called these days. i might call the number tomorrow.

Statement from the Clinical Director's page (Dec. 1997):

-------------- • -------------- • --------------

Steven Hazel

Drug and alcohol addiction has been identified as one of the most serious public health threats to our society today. This problem cuts across all lines of race, religion, socioeconomic status,gender and age. Addiction destabilizes and devastates the lives of individuals, families and entire communities. More than 18 million people who use alcohol and 5 million who use illicit drugs are in need of substance abuse treatment. "Need" is determined by consumption patterns and the seriousness of the associated consequences. Substance abuse has been described as a family disease. Simply put, substance abuse affects the entire family by causing "disease", while the underlying effects are usually the same. Loved ones desperately try to control the addict's behavior. The addict resists these efforts and the addict's family becomes filled with frustration, anger and guilt.

The first step toward recovery from addiction is for the family, and hopefully the addict, to surrender to the fact that they are indeed powerless over addiction and that life has become unmanageable. The second step is for the family to seek help from some outside source so that they can be guided in restoring order and sanity to their lives in spite of the terrible wreckage that addiction has caused.
