On The Rise

About Us

• Mission: On the rise's work begins with individuals experiencing homelessness, and continues if and when they secure housing. from our origin as a women's organization, our programs have evolved toward inclusion of those historically and structurally oppressed on the basis of gender.

  for those with the fewest options, we cultivate long-term relationships that foster safety and belonging. guided by the strength and initiative of our program participants, we join their journey to wellbeing, as skilled partners and advocates.

  throughout this journey, we engage with the people, programs and systems that most affect our participants, working to build a society that nourishes their wellbeing.
