Description

RISE is a reentry program that provides support groups and case management with a focus on restorative reentry. RISE serves men aged 18-25 who are incarcerated, recently released, and/or mandated to programming. The program uses the cognitive-based Living Is For Everyone (LIFE) violence reduction curriculum. Facilitators, many of whom are individuals with lived experience of incarceration, help young men explore the types of thinking that triggers violent behavior and begin to identify the risk factors associated with violence. This curriculum is based on the framework of Alive & Free Prescription to End Violence™.
