RISE
Reaching Into Self Empowerment
Life in Transition? Learning to deal with life's challenges?
RISE Workshops Can Help You Figure Out Next Steps
RISE is a series of interactive workshops designed for women in transition who seek new ways to build confidence and overcome obstacles by rediscovering their inner strength and power. The program guides participants as they embrace their positive self-concept to reach their life goals. RISE workshops are ideal for women who are contemplating a life change, seeking re-entry into the workforce or who are looking to increase their self-esteem.
RISE participants will:
- Improve your coping skills
- Tap into your talent
- Gain strength from past experiences
- Learn how to make healthy decisions
- Recognize and extinguish self-defeating thoughts
- Silence your inner critic

[RISE] really did change my attitude about how I wanted to approach my life going forward...
I wanted to be heard and then healed. The Center for Women was the place for me to find both things in my life.
I am the woman I am today because of the kindness, generosity and understanding of the NCJW Center for Women.
