Same great Rise. A new way to describe our work.

Today, we're sharing our new mission, vision, and values. As Rise has grown and evolved, so has the way we talk about our purpose and impact. Our new mission, vision, and values better reflect who we are today, the future we're working to create, and the principles that guide our work every day.

Together, they capture the heart of our work, the possibilities we strive to create, and what our community and the people we support can expect from us.

A perfect Minnesota day! ☀️🎡

Last week, Rise C**n Rapids spent the day at the Minnesota State Fair! They enjoyed great food, fun games, and a visit to The Raptor Center's wildlife presentation at the Garden Stage, where they learned about different types of birds and the work involved in caring for and rehabilitating them.

A highlight of the presentation was seeing a hawk up close!
