Sex Ed. For Real.

RISE is excited to introduce a new line of shop items designed to make you grin, lift your heart, and quietly (or not so quietly) reflect your values. Our new t-shirts, stainless steel tumblers, and tote bags feature cheeky, affirming messages that bring a little joy into everyday moments — and maybe even spark some conversations.

Pride Community Center celebrates its new shared space with RISE: Healthy for Life, and you are invited to join in Sunday, Oct. 26, from 5-7 p.m. Bring food AND come in costume if you want! All welcome!

Help RISE take the next step—support our subscription to CoactionNet for secure data handling and more as we work to establish new best practices in sexual health education!

Join us to look at common experiences from history, discuss how we can show that we are safe and welcoming to others, and explore ways to make our communities more supportive and healthy for everyone. Free and open to the public.

RISE will be closed July 28-August 15 to give our staff and volunteers time to rest and recharge. Thanks for your understanding, and remember to take time for yourself, too!

To participate in the study, you must be between 15 and 25 years old, identify as having a disability, and meet additional eligibility criteria. Participants will receive a $50 Amazon gift card for participating in a 1 hour Zoom interview. For more information, please visit the study's website. 

Two organizations are asking guardians to share information about the state of child and family wellbeing across the Southern region of the United States from the perspective of parents and caregivers. The survey should take no more than 5 minutes, and responses will remain anonymous. Please provide a response to the survey by June 12, 2025.
