Our mission and vision.
Our mission.
I Rise promotes economic and social justice for women who have survived violence and exploitation, through creating supportive partnerships and a pathway to financial independence and upward mobility.
Our vision for a better future.
I Rise envisions a community where survivors are connected with one another: establishing friendships, receiving support and encouragement, and rising together.
I Rise envisions a community that mobilizes and rises up to partner with organizations and entities in ending violence and exploitation of women and children through education, prevention, and aftercare support.
I Rise envisions a community that removes barriers to support survivors in gaining financial freedom and independence. That provide opportunities to further education, generate jobs that pay a sustainable income and promote upward mobility.
I Rise envisions empowered women who will rise up to break cycles of violence and injustice, that will impact their families and communities for generations to come.
Our method.
I Rise works toward its mission and vision for a better future through a three-pronged approach to supporting survivors of violence and exploitation.
