Garfield is a person in long-term recovery and a staff member at the Las Vegas Rescue Mission (LVRM). He first learned about The Phoenix through our partnership events with LVRM and deepened his involvement by participating in the UNLV internship program in fall 2025. His internship experience helped him to explore new pathways to recovery and opened a door for him to incorporate more paths in his personal recovery journey. “It got me locked into The Phoenix on a deeper level. I’m in the community now and am going to incorporate it into my life.” Garfield leads open mic nights at The Phoenix Community Center on the fourth Saturday of every month.
