Welcome to PAI

Phoenix Alternatives Inc. is now PAI

As is the nature of most organizations, over the course of years, identities often evolve and grow.  This has been our experience at PAI.  In 2012 we thought it was time to reflect that growth and evolution by refreshing both our name and logo. The restatement of our name was easy, over our 23 years of service our name Phoenix Alternatives, Inc. has gradually become identified by its abbreviation “PAI”.  The new logo was a little tougher.  We wanted the new logo to capture both our rich history while at the same time reflect the depth of growth guiding us today and into the future.  We think the new logo does just that; it embodies the transformational spirit of our dynamic history, reflects today’s exciting journey while, at the same time, guiding us toward an even more inspired tomorrow.

 PAI transforms the lives of people with intellectual/developmental disabilities through possibilities and inspirations.  We see the potential in each individual and are inspired by the array of possibilities.  We work with them to maximize integration into their communities.
