RiseUp understands that for some students the path to graduation from high school

as the first step toward achieving their dreams has not been a straight one.

In the words of Langston Hughes “Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.” 

RiseUp exists to support the students who have had to rise above family and 

personal struggles  in addition to the “systemic inefficiencies” of the educational system.
