Our Programs

Three Pathways. One Mission.

Rise Above Soars meets people where they are — in prison, on the street, or without shelter — and walks with them toward restoration.

Reentry and recovery support

Program 01

Reentry & Recovery

From incarceration to restoration.

We partner with correctional facilities and community organizations to provide returning citizens with the tools, mentorship, and spiritual support they need to rebuild their lives and break the cycle of recidivism.

Pre-Release Planning

Coordinating housing, employment, and support before release.

Mentorship Matching

Pairing participants with trained faith-based mentors.

Life Skills Training

Financial literacy, job readiness, and communication skills.

Substance Recovery

Faith-integrated recovery programs and accountability groups.

Homelessness outreach and support

Program 02

Homelessness Support

Dignity, not just a bed.

Our homelessness outreach goes beyond emergency shelter. We provide wraparound services that address the root causes of homelessness — mental health, addiction, trauma, and lack of community — with compassion and long-term commitment.

Street Outreach

Meeting individuals where they are with food, care, and connection.

Case Management

Personalized plans to move from crisis to stability.

Mental Health Support

Connecting participants to licensed counselors and peer support.

Housing Navigation

Identifying and securing transitional and permanent housing.

Faith-based shelter and church partnership

Program 03

Faith-Based Shelter

The church as a place of refuge.

We equip and mobilize Dallas-area churches to open their doors as emergency shelters. Through our Faith-Based Shelter Network, congregations become active partners in ending homelessness — providing safe overnight stays, meals, and community.

Church Onboarding

Training and resources for congregations joining the network.

Overnight Shelter Hosting

Coordinated rotational shelter nights across partner churches.

Volunteer Coordination

Organizing and equipping church volunteers for service.

Spiritual Care

Chaplaincy and pastoral support for shelter guests.

"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."
— Psalm 147:3
