Phoenix Pass: Empowering Homeless Women Through Transitional Housing

We're good stewards over the finances, we're good stewards over the property, but mostly we're good shepherds over the families that we get to serve, and I do mean just the fact that they allow us to speak into their lives and they trust us with their stories.
Imagine finding yourself without a home and needing to rebuild your life from scratch. That's where Phoenix Pass steps in. In this episode of 'The Recovery Hour', hosts Bill Carruthers and Tanisha Character sit down with Auvronette Guilbeaux, the Executive Director of Phoenix Pass and a Certified Christian Counselor. Phoenix Pass is a two-year transitional housing program designed specifically for homeless women aiming to turn their lives around.
The program offers a holistic, curriculum-based approach to life skills and community-based education, helping participants regain stability and independence. Auvronette shares how Phoenix Pass goes beyond just providing a roof over one's head. It focuses on equipping women with essential life skills and employment opportunities through partnerships with local agencies. The program is deeply rooted in community support, relying on volunteers and donations to keep its mission alive.
The discussion highlights the critical role of community involvement in helping these women rebuild their lives. Auvronette also opens up about her personal journey from addiction to becoming the Executive Director of Phoenix Pass. Her story is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of using one's voice to advocate for oneself and others. She emphasizes the significance of life skills education in improving the quality of life for the women at Phoenix Pass.
Listeners will find this episode both inspiring and informative, offering a deep dive into the transformative impact of Phoenix Pass. Whether you're looking to support the cause or simply understand more about the challenges and triumphs of homeless women, this episode provides valuable insights and actionable ways to get involved.
