The Respect in Schools Everywhere (RISE) Program is a youth-led, school-based violence prevention and mentorship program for grades 7 – 12.

Youth participants are responsible for developing and facilitating workshops focused on bullying, mental health and stigma, and conflict resolution. RISE has developed a program model for schools based on evidence-based practices and current research. RISE is currently delivered at West Hill Collegiate Institute however it can be introduced and started at any school or community agency interested in starting the program.
