Every family is unique and has both joys and challenges. Rising Ground is here to provide the support people need to build upon their strengths and address adversity in times of need. When a family is in crisis or facing ongoing challenges that could affect the safety and well-being of their children, we work with parents, relatives, and children to make sure children are in a safe, stable environment from which they can grow and thrive. For families at risk of having children placed in foster care to those who have been removed due to abuse or neglect, we work with children and parents to find positive paths forward, focusing on keeping families together.

This work relates directly to our founding as an orphan house in 1831. For nearly two centuries, we have evolved to meet the needs of families and ensure the safety and well-being of children in times of need.
