Why We Started
Phoenix was founded to bridge the gaps that many survivors of sexual assault and sexual abuse experience when seeking support. For some, navigating the aftermath of trauma can feel overwhelming, especially for college students who often face unique challenges like stigma, uncertainty, and finding resources that are tailored to their needs and personality.
At Phoenix, we’re here to change that experience. Our empowerment-focused approach ensures survivors have a welcoming space to begin their healing journey without unnecessary barriers. Phoenix is more than a resource—it’s a community that believes in rising together and supporting survivors as they heal and rise.
