Who we support

There are so many amazing organizations already doing incredible work and we want to support them. The hardest part is choosing between all of the wonderful groups out there, but here are some that we currently support along with our own work to advance our mission.

Shatterproof's Substance Use Disorder Treatment Task Force has developed the National Principles of Care, a standard for addiction treatment based on proven research. And for the first time ever, 16 leading healthcare payers have agreed to unite around this standard. With this agreement, we're closer than ever to ensuring that every American with a substance use disorder has access to quality, evidence-based treatment.

Shatterproof also takes on federal and state advocacy battles, mobilizing families affected by addiction and providing them with a platform to make their voices heard. Your advocacy support has helped 15 states pass life-saving legislation: broadening access to lifesaving naloxone, strengthening prescription drug monitoring programs, and ensuring prescriber practices align with CDC guidance on opioids.

The CSZ Foundation contributes $25,000 per year to ‘Shatter Proof.

Motivated to build a healing community for anyone impacted by substance use or mental health, Scott Strode founded The Phoenix in 2006. What began as a bike ride with a group of sober peers in Colorado is now a national nonprofit that has reached more than 1.3 million people across all 50 states. The Phoenix offers free activities for anyone who has 48 hours of sobriety, including fitness classes, social events, art programs, meditation, and more. With the launch of NewForm, their digital app, members now have access to a robust digital community as well as support from 140 partner organizations.

In Connecticut, The Phoenix has trained and supported more than 100 volunteers who are growing the sober movement from within their communities. To date, they have reached more than 11,000 people in Connecticut, and local members have participated in more than 17,000 volunteer-led events. In Hartford County, the most attended Phoenix activities include hiking, meditation, and arts classes such as Paint ‘n Sober Sips. Through these welcoming, peer-led experiences, The Phoenix helps people find community, develop healthy connections, and have an opportunity to thrive.


The CSZ Foundation contributes $90,000 per year to the ‘The Phoenix’.

At the Cobbs Creek Foundation, we seek to create an all-inclusive, state-of-the-art golf and educational campus that provides opportunity for the diverse youth of Philadelphia. By revitalizing this legendary landmark, we will create an economically sustainable public campus which will offer world-class golf and provide educational and community programming. Cobbs Creek will remain an inviting and supportive public course that welcomes all players from every background and at every level.
