“Hide nothing from the masses of our people. Tell no lies. Expose lies whenever they are told. Mask no difficulties, mistakes, failures. Claim no easy victories.”
- Amilcar Cabral
Health and Wellness
RYSE aims to create a continuum of culturally relevant services and support that facilitate young people coming informed consumers of health services and active agents of their own health and wellness. Young people are invited to participate in activities and events that empower them to explore and restore physical, emotional and spiritual health individually, interpersonally and in the community. Programming and services include direct health services and linkages, counseling and crisis intervention/management, health education workshops, support groups, and wellness activities (such as yoga and meditation) and events.
