  • The work you do at Rise Above is amazing. I know the struggles some of those kids face and to have someone still acknowledge them means the world to them, I’m sure.

  • I think Rise Above already is leaps and bounds ahead of other agencies as it pertains to combating ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) because of how much we value our students on an individual basis

    Counselor

  • My son attended Rise Above a couple of years ago. He loved it and we feel lucky that we found out about the program when we needed it. It’s a wonderful program to have in the Jackson area.
