Project RISE-NSU

Project Rise is a quality improvement initiative funded by The Children’s Trust. Project RISE is designed to help Trust-funded Youth Development programs quality of care rise to meet the health and safety, academic, and social-emotional needs of the youth they serve. Project RISE offers free face-to-face, regularly scheduled training and online training to all Trust-funded Youth Development programs. In addition, through the use of assessment tools, we are able to identify staff and program's strengths as well as any areas where support is needed. Once these areas are identified, we can offer free individual technical support. Trainings and technical assistance are available in the areas of:

• Literacy strategies
• Homework assistance
• Behavior management strategies, including managing challenging behaviors
• Improving youths' fitness outcomes
• Youth development strategies
• Social Emotional Learning
• Programmatic outcome measurement (e.g., PACER, Oral Reading Fluency)
