people thrive.

the people perish.”

Overview of Services
At the R.I.S.E. Center, all of the support services we offer to the community flow through three programs:
LIFE
Working with partners and allies, we help community members stabilize and connect with resources that support their most immediate needs.
LITERACY
Our literacy program is focused on unlocking the learner in each community member, then equipping them with the tools to develop literacy in every area of their lives.
LEADERSHIP
The courses, classes, and workshops that fall under the Leadership program open doors to opportunity and cash flow. We help build relationships, connect to mentors, and more.
