Rise supports individuals with mental health, substance use and addiction challenges to become entrepreneurs and transform their lives. Through flexible micro-financing, training, and wrap-around supports, Rise helps people learn the skills and access the capital they need to build a small business for meaningful employment, economic empowerment, and personal well-being.

During this session, Anne will provide an overview of Rise’s funding, mentorship and training opportunities across Canada, as well as clear steps on how to make a referral.
