About Phoenix Recovery Support Services

Phoenix Recovery Support Services, based in Chicago, Illinois, is a recovery housing provider in Cook County serving men 18 and older.

Phoenix Recovery Support Services in Austin

Phoenix Recovery Support Services runs recovery housing from Chicago's Austin neighborhood for residents who are male, age 18 or older, and positions a recovery home as a bridge from substance use treatment to living independently without using drugs or alcohol. Austin lies on the city's western boundary inside Cook County, adjoining the village of Oak Park.

State Credentials Behind the Program

Phoenix Recovery Home staff are described as qualified substance use professionals certified by the Illinois Certification Board, and the operator describes Phoenix Recovery as an IDHS licensed facility. Both are credentials issued by the state and by a professional board. A staff certification says something about the people delivering the program and a state license says something about the organization itself, so the two answer different questions for a referring worker.

Six Service Areas

Phoenix Recovery Support Services groups its work into social activities, housing placement, recovery education, network development, life skills and employment assistance, delivered in part through linkages with other agencies. Delivering part of that through other agencies means the operator connects residents outward to services rather than attempting to supply everything from one office.

Publishing Its Own Outcomes

The organization publishes annual figures. For fiscal year 2025 it reports 2,325 referrals provided, 171 men and women served, and a 69 percent overall completion rate. Publishing a completion rate puts a number on the operator's own record, and the referral figure alongside the number served shows how much of what the organization counts is connecting people onward.
