ARISE Life Skills Staff Training Opportunities
ARISE Foundation’s mission is to introduce valuable life skills to youth and adults, enabling them to achieve their highest potential through training and education. This is accomplished through our life skills training program and ARISE Life-Skills Curriculum. You don’t have to hold a college degree in education to be trained as an ARISE instructor. ARISE is taught by those with GED diplomas, volunteers, teachers, counselors—anyone with a desire to help young people. Please click on the following link to see our ARISE Recipe for Success.
Currently, ARISE offers three highly interactive and informative trainings. We have provided below a brief description of each ARISE staff training opportunity. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
