Rising Ground offers a wide range of therapeutic and clinical supports to help survivors and their families overcome their past trauma and find paths towards healthy, independent lives.
We provide individual and group therapy to help survivors and their children. Recognizing the strain that intimate partner violence can have on families, we help parents and children bond, endure, move forward. We also offer parenting support through our facilitation of Parenting Journey and Parenting in America programs, through which parents explore how their past experiences impact their parenting and re-envision how to lead their families.
For survivors, the consequences of an abusive partner can last well beyond when a survivor is able to gain independence. Survivors experience a host of logistical challenges that can disrupt the healing process and hinder efforts to get their lives back on track. Rising Ground offers expansive case management and advocacy to meet the complex needs of survivors and their families. We provide guidance in accessing housing, public assistance, education, and more. Recognizing the particular vulnerability of survivors and their families to economic insecurity, as well as the financial barriers to gaining independence from an abusive partner, our Economic Empowerment Program provides financial counseling and advocacy for survivors.
