One Phoenix participant calls the program enriching. She remarked that, "The different elements of therapy: music therapy, group therapy, individual therapy, intergenerational programming, creative expression group, and support groups have been like opening a closed door to a new world." She went on to say, "The Phoenix program has been helpful as a human being to appreciate being able to be seen and see others as an individual, not as their physical or behavioral challenges."
