At Rise Up Industries, our mission is to minimize gang involvement by providing integrated gang intervention, gang prevention, and post detention reentry. With our program we hope to break the cycle of gang involvement. Gang involvement is a systemic issue that is continued with the youth in the community. Unfortunately, previously incarcerated, formerly gang involved individuals face numerous barriers to successful reentry, especially employment. This pushes many back into criminality and perpetuates the cycle of recidivism. The Reentry Program offers more than income—it offers a sustainable career. We prepare our members for careers in CNC (Computer Numeric Control) machining, which is a well-paying trade that is in high demand.
