Rise

Two people are standing with their backs to the camera in a room. Both are wearing hoodies with religious messages; the left hoodie says 'JESUS' in multiple languages, and the right hoodie says 'LOVE LIKE JESUS' in bold black letters.

The RISE Program is a bold next step for individuals already engaged with our team at Jesus on Colfax. Designed for those ready to get serious about employment and sobriety, RISE is a 12 month job and life skills training program rooted in accountability, healing, and hope

Two women smiling outdoors, one with sunglasses on her head wearing a white T-shirt, and the other with long braided hair wearing a musical-themed black T-shirt, standing close together near a brick building.

Participants live in a safe environment while working through a curriculum focused on practical job readiness, personal development, mentorship, and community life that supports long-term change.

Ways to help with RISE

  • Two people, a bald man and a young woman with earrings and a backpack, are holding hands and touching foreheads in a moment of prayer or reflection outdoors, with buildings in the background.

    Become an Ally

    Allies meet on a regular basis with participants in a mentoring role to support their growth journey.

  • Clothing racks and shelves with various items in an indoor space.

    Get a Room Ready

    Help us get a room ready for a new participant. Does your church or small group want to furnish a room for a new RISE participant? This is a huge blessing to our staff and the participants!

  • Group of people sitting in a circle in a room, engaged in a discussion or meeting.

    Teach a class

    We are always looking for class teachers. We have classes on a variety of topics.

    Classes are Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
