RISE - Reaching Independence Through Social Engagement
My Daily Community Activities...

Move your life experiences in a new direction – and experience your community like never before!  Gain confidence and independence, meet new friends and gain experience through seeing new sights and participating in new activities!

Individuals also volunteer at various places in the community, visit local tourist sites and attend exciting community events throughout St. Charles and St. Louis.

  • Program hours: 9:00am - 3:00pm
  • Transportation may be available, depending on your area of residence.
