The Phoenix Society opened in May to serve men from throughout the province age 17 to 24 with severe and high-risk substance-use and mental health-care needs

Free residential treatment beds for young men with severe drug additions and addicted youth experiencing homelessness have been added in Surrey and Vancouver, the province announced Thursday.

Eighteen beds at the Phoenix Society opened in May to serve men from throughout the province age 17 to 24 with severe and high-risk substance-use and possibly moderate mental health-care needs. The average stay for treatment is three to six months. The treatment offered at Phoenix Society is higher-intensity substance-use care beyond what is available in clients’ health areas, it said.

The length of stay in these beds will vary depending on patient needs. Vancouver Coastal Health is accepting referrals from health-care providers for the beds.
