Yesterday, we officially opened the doors of our Brooklyn programmatic hub to the public! 🎉

Attendees heard from Council Member Council Member Lincoln Restler and our executive leadership, then toured the new space, which showcased artwork created by program participants.

Starting now, Brooklyn neighbors can walk into 111 Livingston Street and connect with mental health services, afterschool programming, and family support, all in one place.

We are so glad to be here, and we can’t wait to keep building with this community.

“Why do people find out about resources when they’re in crisis?”

She’s right. Too many people don’t know help exists until they’re already in the middle of needing it.

So consider this us telling you now, before the crisis. Rising Ground is here. Housing support, family services, community resources, all of it exists for you or someone you know, whenever you need it. Click the link in bio for ways to support or get connected to services.

Mr. Bronner will tell you he knows Brooklyn like the back of his hand. Ask him anything about the borough and he’s got a story, a shortcut, a memory. He’s lively, he’s warm, and he has a spirit that fills up a room.

So when an eye surgery didn’t go the way it was supposed to, and he found himself unsure of what came next.

His doctor connected him to a Rising Ground health navigator, a social worker who didn’t just point him in a direction and walk away. She stayed with him, connected him to his options of care, and helped him navigate a moment in his life he didn’t see coming.

Mr. Bronner in Brooklyn

Mr. Bronner spoke to us about finding Rising Ground in a doctor's office. After an eye surgery that didn't go well - found himself needing more support. That's where we come in. Click the link to hear more about Mr. Bronner's story.

Me before the youth conference:
Nervous, in preparation
Me after:
Standing in front of my family, my friends and city staff talking about mental health, consent and intersectionality like I’ve been doing this my whole life.

Our young people didn’t just attend in a conference. They built one they picked the topics. They ran the groups. They presented to a room full of people who came to listen because they had something to say.

This is what happens when you hand young people the Mike and trust them with it so proud of every single one of them.
