Overview

Mission

Rise Up Recovery provides recovery services that empower people to rise up into a meaningful new life through the development of impactful connection with God, community and self.

What it reported doing in 2025

Recovery support services profided both at a community center property and at two houses operating post-treatment programs to help stabilize recovery for 30 days.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 64% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
