SOAR's Resilience, Independence, & Self-confidence (through) Experiences or RISE program, under SOAR’s CORE Services umbrella, provides trauma-informed, resilience-building support for youth experiencing school disengagement, justice involvement, family instability, or emotional and behavioral challenges. Through experiential therapy, coaching, and skill-building, youth are supported in developing positive coping strategies, emotional regulation, and relationship skills.

Increasing Resilience
At SOAR, resilience is the ability to navigate adversity, adapt to challenges, and continue growing—even in the face of hardship. We believe resilience is something that can be learned, practiced, and strengthened over time.
