Journey with us
Case
Management
ARISE believes that everyone has a future worth having, and case management is where we come together to work towards the future. This goal-based program meets the participant where they are at to begin setting the path for where they want to be, and how we can journey there together.
LunChurch &
Outreach Coffee
Everyone has a seat at God's table and LunChurch is a time where we bring this to life. Once a month, all members of the ARISE community gather to break bread and join one another in fellowship for a homemade community meal.
​
We are always accepting food contributions for our meal-based programs. Check out "Support Us" for more information.
Street Level &
Virtual Outreach
This where ARISE is known as "The Pretty Bag Ladies." Once a week, ARISE staff and incredible volunteers walk the strolls of Downtown Toronto handing out our famous "pretty bags" and build connections with those working at street-level.

We are always accepting contributions for our pretty bag supplies. Check out "Support Us" for more information.
Self-Defence Program
It is not just about technique. Participants in ARISE's weekly self-defence program gain confidence, strength, and empowerment to increase self-awareness and personal safety. Classes are trauma-informed and accessible for all skills sets and abilities.
Community Engagement
Knowledge is power, and ARISE is available to help all groups get the knowledge they need to help keep their communities safe by engaging audiences around the subject of human trafficking, exploitation, and how ARISE works to be the light in the darkness for survivors.
Art Therapy
Art Therapy provides an alternative outlet to help process, interpret, express, and resolve emotions and thoughts that can be hard to share through more traditional modes of talk therapy. Sessions are provided by an experienced art therapist with no cost to participants.
