We are getting close to opening the doors of RISE House! Redemption, integrity, self-worth, and empowerment! A great way you can help is by purchasing an item off the Amazon wish list.
RISE House is a transitional home for the survivors who have completed the safe house program. They will continue with therapy, sobriety work, check-ins with case management while building financial stability and working toward long term independence.

Help us make this home a cozy, welcoming place of healing, hope, and independence as these amazing women begin their next chapter! ❤️
