RISE Coaching: Partner Agency Testimonials
The RISE Coaching Network
changed how I supported clients. I asked first, to see how they wanted me to support them. It has also changed my awareness of how uncomfortable my co-workers are and how much support they really need. – Anonymous
The RISE Coaching Network
has made me aware of my own ‘stuff’ and I can now filter those things out to make sure I am always affirming and supportive.
The RISE Coaching Network
has increased my awareness among co-workers and I see the positive impact on empowering youth to advocate for themselves and others. Our staff are also more prepared to advocate on behalf of youth.
Learning how to answer awkward questions with confidence, and without judgment,
has made all the difference. Being able to meet together with others is a great way to garner confidence, support, and resources for supporting the LGBTQ community, particularly our youth.
