Rise at risenow.us

Rise is an award-winning civil rights accelerator that trains everyday people to pen their own civil rights into existence. Our focus is on centering empathy, storytelling and strategy within community-organizing. You might have heard of us from our New York Fashion Week Show or the laws we’ve passed, or our work on Stop Asian Hate. To learn more about Rise visit us at risenow.us.

Rise is also a multi-sector coalition of sexual assault survivors and allies working to empower all sexual assault survivors with fundamental civil rights protections. We represent professionals from the legal, health, business, and academic sectors who believe that these inherent civil rights will create systemic change in the way institutions respond to survivors and, ultimately, dismantle the mechanisms of rape culture.
