Phoenix Community Services
Phoenix Community Services
Established in January of 2021, Phoenix Community Services began with the goal of it’s founders to give back to their community. After spending time abroad & playing an extensive role in the growth and development of those within Canada & the United States, the team recognized that more can be done within the Town of Ponoka. As a result, PCS was designed to serve the community with a variety of different programs and services.
Programs and Services
-
Safe Haven
Within this service, our primary concern is insuring that we provide a safe overnight space for those in the homeless transition. While some may argue that homelessness is a choice, it is rarely ever that simple. Our doors will open at 8:30pm on a nightly basis starting December 1, 2024. As we begin by supporting 10 individuals on a nightly basis, security will be strictly enforced as the safety of staff, those seeking support, and community members will be our top priority.
-
Friendship Center
As a friendship centre, it is the goal of PCS to fill the gap for those within the community that have no one else to turn to. It is our duty to represent God for we may be the only version of Him that people see in their lives. Therefore, providing Addictions Counseling, Group Therapy for men 18-40, a Warming Shelter as needed and supporting those who need proper identification will show that we care. Please contact us via e-mail or phone for more information.

Community Building
The age of technology is progressing before our very eyes. So much so that it is safe to say that we are living in the future. The purpose of our Community Building program is to provide other avenues for our young people to remain engaged in positive activities and programs rather than negative ones. Through relationship building we seek to develop self-esteem, problem solving, goal setting and much more.
