RISE

Omaha Gives! is a day to celebrate the work of local nonprofits! This 24-hour giving day is not only a way to amplify the charitable donations for organizations like ours, but to really get excited about they work they do. https://www.omahagives.org/SeeUsRise/overview At RISE, it is our mission that all people will find freedom from cycles of incarceration. Our inside/out program works with people living inside the Nebraska correctional facilities and focuses on character development, job readiness, and entrepreneurship. Program graduates receive a RISE completion certificate and Certificate in Career Readiness from the University of Nebraska Omaha's School of Business Administration. RISE offers program graduates case management support upon release. Post-release services include a business incubator, reentry planning, job readiness training and transitional housing.
