Rise Up Industries is a San Diego-based organization that was established in 2013 by individuals who volunteered with Kairos Prison Ministry. Inspired by Father Greg Boyle, founder of Homeboy Industries, Rise Up Industries aims to reduce gang involvement and recidivism by providing integrated gang intervention, prevention, and reentry programs for formerly incarcerated and gang-involved individuals.
Following the model of Homeboy Industries, Rise Up Industries opened its Reentry Program in Santee in 2016, offering support and opportunities for successful reintegration into society. Through their social enterprises, including a machine shop, coffee, silkscreen, and embroidery, Rise Up Industries empowers their members to conceive, believe, and achieve a life free from gang involvement.
