RISE UP is a Residential Agency that provides support and care management to individuals in their own homes or apartments in the community. We are committed to helping people remain in their homes throughout all phases of the aging process.
Our staff will help participants connect with medical providers in the community and ensure that they are meeting any needs, help sign people up for Energy Assistance as well as other programs to aid in reducing living expenses, and help the people served to maintain and/or build community connections.
Many of RISE UP’s participants are retired; daytime services are provided for these folks. In addition, RISE UP assists participants in finding paid or volunteer positions in their areas of interest. We believe in the importance of building and maintaining community connections; weekly Friday Fish Fry, church events, Very Special Arts, and MSCR recreational programs are enjoyed by many of RISE UP’s participants. We have also been able to coordinate vacations to the Dells, Cubs’ and Brewers’ games, and even week-long cruises for our participants to enjoy!
Through years of experience, RISE UP has gained special insights and expertise regarding aging issues and how these issues impact developmentally disabled individuals. Our staff can provide additional specialized cares needed to safely support elderly individuals with developmental disabilities in their own homes.
