How will you help shape the future of Richmond?

RYSE seeks candidates with a passion for social justice and working with youth of color. 

This is an increasingly exciting time for RYSE as our plans for the RYSE Commons campus expand and deepen. Programs have been in full swing with music, laughter, games, and workshops ringing through the buildings. RYSE is larger than it's ever been and still we continue to dream forward (stay tuned for more on the renovation of RYSE’s Health Justice Center and the expansion of the RYSE Village!). In this forward-motion and continued deepening of our roots, we are looking to expand the team as well!

RYSE culture is safe, welcoming, inclusive, and holds values rooted in youth power, racial equity, social justice, healing, and play. Our programming and services span across areas of health justice; education and economic justice; youth justice; media, arts & culture; and youth leadership and organizing.
