Why

In every story, there is a ‘Why.’ Why do we do what we do to help others each day? Why would you want to learn more about those reasons? Why should anyone want to become involved or help us?

Being a part of RISE Life Services means more than being an employee, a resident, a volunteer, a sponsor or a donor. When you join our community, you join our family. You are a caregiver, an individual with whom we are elevating to live your best life, or a vital part of our strength and growth. (If you’d like to learn more about a career with our agency, be sure to click on the Careers tab above, or join us at our Winter Career Fair on January 19.)

RISE offers different programs within our residences and also a day program and even a food pantry. With this new year, we invite you to learn more about each one of those. Learn the stories of the ICF or IRA residences; the Mental Health Program and their houses; the Day Program Without Walls, called The Main Street Connection; or about our two locations of our food pantries serving the food insecure each week. RISE has become a thread throughout our community, helping everyone we can. Click through our website to the menu listing our Services. Read about our new Advocacy program also, which we hope will ensure that the elected officials of New York State know how important we are to those we serve.

If you are new to our community and just being introduced to all we do, welcome! It’s going to be a great year ahead in 2021 and we are so glad to get to know you. Stay tuned right here or on our social media to find out updates about events and opportunities to connect. Thank you!
