Our Approach

We view recovery as part of a person’s whole life. Housing, relationships, employment, health, and everyday responsibilities all shape the path forward.

Our approach emphasizes:

  • A supportive home: A substance-free living environment grounded in dignity, mutual respect, and shared responsibility.

  • Personal goals: Encouragement and practical guidance as women identify priorities and work toward independence.

  • Everyday skills: Opportunities to strengthen routines, budgeting, communication, and other skills for daily living.

  • Community connections: Connections to recovery resources, employment, education, healthcare, and other supports.

RIZE provides recovery-supportive housing rather than clinical treatment. We do not provide onsite medical detox or 24-hour clinical care.

About RIZE Pathways

Recovery Is a Journey. RIZE Is a Path Forward.

R.I.Z.E. Pathways is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to helping women ages 18 and older build stable, independent lives in recovery. Our approach combines recovery-supportive housing, practical life skills, personal accountability, and community connections.

We believe every woman deserves to be treated with dignity and have opportunities to move forward. A supportive home can provide a foundation for strengthening recovery, developing healthy routines, and working toward personal goals.

Our Mission

Our mission is to empower women in recovery to build stable, independent lives through safe, recovery-supportive housing, practical life skills, and meaningful community connections.

Why RIZE Exists

Pursuing recovery does not automatically mean someone has stable housing, employment, financial security, or a dependable support system.

RIZE was created to help address that gap. We recognize that rebuilding a life takes time and that each woman brings her own strengths, experiences, and goals. Our purpose is to provide a supportive environment where women can take practical steps toward the futures they want.

Who We Serve

RIZE Pathways serves women ages 18 and older who are in recovery and seeking a structured, substance-free living environment.

We do not currently provide housing or services for children. Children cannot reside in the home.
