The Phoenix: How a Sober Active Community is Changing Recovery in Arizona

At The Phoenix, recovery looks different. Instead of sitting in circles, members climb rocks, practice yoga, run marathons, and build friendships through hundreds of weekly sober events across Arizona and the nation.

Building Community Through Activity

The organization is fueling a movement that builds on the power of community and belonging to change how society approaches addiction and recovery. Through activities from CrossFit to hiking to music events, they create safe spaces for individuals to connect, build friendships, find support, and have fun.

1 Million Strong

The Phoenix set an ambitious goal: supporting one million people in recovery by 2025. Their approach is simple - get people active together, and the community forms naturally.

Free and Accessible

All Phoenix events are free and open to anyone with 48 or more hours of sobriety. You do not need to be an athlete. Activities range from beginner yoga to intense CrossFit, hiking to art classes, meditation to team sports.
