Each month RISE recognizes an individual in one of our programs who has made exceptional progress towards meeting their goals. This month our spotlight is on Carol, a former RISE resident, was a gifted and talented artist. We fondly remember her and her beautiful artwork. At RISE we encourage artistic pursuits as an effective means to manage mental health symptoms. Because we believe in the therapeutic qualities of creating art, we’ve invited Create Community Studios to conduct art therapy groups in each of our programs on a monthly basis.
