Resilience • Identity • Skills • Empowerment

The RISE Program is a core youth development initiative of Rahma Community & Youth Centre designed to support youth and young adults in building confidence, leadership, and pathways to success.

RISE serves youth—particularly newcomer, black, racialized, and underserved youth who may face barriers related to education, employment, mental health, or social inclusion. The program provides a safe, culturally responsive environment where participants are supported to grow personally, academically, and socially.

What RISE offers

  • Mentorship & Leadership Development

    Youth are paired with mentors and facilitators who support goal setting, confidence-building, and positive identity development.

  • Mental Health & Wellness Supports

    Trauma-informed and culturally grounded workshops and peer circles promote emotional well-being and resilience.

  • Education & Career Readiness

    Academic support, life-skills training, and career exploration help youth prepare for school, training, and employment pathways.

  • Youth Voice & Civic Engagement

    Creative projects such as storytelling, podcasting, and community initiatives empower youth to share their voices and lead positive change.

Our Approach

RISE uses a strengths-based, youth-centered approach that values lived experience, cultural identity, and community connection. Programming is delivered in collaboration with community partners to ensure accessibility and real-world impact.
