Co-creating safer San Diego neighborhoods by helping formerly incarcerated, previously gang-involved individuals successfully reintegrate into our communities.
Discflo went to the @RiseUpIn Open House yesterday — an inspiring look at 2nd chances, skill building & safer communities in Santee. Their mission is powerful: support formerly incarcerated & previously gang-involved people with training & employment. We love seeing their impact!
“Homeless and with nowhere to turn, I held onto my spirit and determination. A job fair led me to the @RiseUpIn booth, and soon after, RUI accepted me into the program. Today, I have full-time employment, live in a house, attend college full-time, am active in my recovery and coming back stronger than I ever have been. RUI continues to mentor me in CNC machining and supports my growth in all aspects of my life. I am grateful for the blessings and the chance to build a better future.”
San Diegans experiencing homelessness cite employment as a key factor in ending their homelessness. Learn more about our job training and employment programs that are helping individuals build a bright future: https://t.co/kIlvFsu8JA
