About Phoenix Society
Phoenix Society is located in Surrey, BC. We help people all across BC, with a majority from lower mainland area. We are centrally located and easily accessible by transit. Phoenix Society is dedicated to social innovation and community initiatives that help participants exit the cycle of addiction and homelessness.
