My Nonprofit Reviews

RISE empowers leaders in transformative and authentic ways. Unlike most leadership programs that focus on growing the technical and operational skills of their leaders, RISE goes beyond to transform the hearts of its leaders. Their leadership program is focused on deep self-reflection to prepare leaders to ready themselves to truly be able to serve others and their community. RISE encourages leaders to evaluate their impact from an equity lens to bring about true systemic change.

Outside of its Urban Leaders Fellowship program, RISE also seeks to engage and empower the community through an annual community showcase and awards ceremony as well as through training and professional development opportunities.
