Rise On

Rise On, part of Justice Resource Institute (JRI), knew they needed to address disparities of care in the marginalized communities they serve. 

With a focus across three core initiatives: a community of support, access to care and harm reduction, Rise On paired innovative resources with community based outreach to rethink the model of care and provide access to historically marginalized groups.
