Voices from the Community

I went from being a very troubled child to a person that aspires to be one of the best criminal defense lawyers—someone driven by a series of injustices to pursue success, a person that youth at RYSE can look up to.

-D’Ana Clark, RYSE Youth Justice Fellow, California

Project Description

RYSE deepened its Richmond roots by raising up a new structure to better hold and amplify youth voices: RYSE Commons. The organization used NMTC financing to renovate its existing center into a 37,000+ sq. ft. campus which expanded youth programs and partnership space by 300%.
