Court-Ordered Community Service Can be Pleasant with the ARISE Good Graces Program

Innovative program helps individuals in the public eye teach at-risk inner-city youth vital life skills, such as anger management and self-esteem, while fulfilling their legal obligations.

North Palm Beach, FL, March 07, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The evening news is filled with stories of prominent people getting into trouble with the law. With them in mind, ARISE designed a fantastic new program which would allow those well-known members of the community to help troubled, at-risk and incarcerated youth while fulfilling their court-ordered community service obligations.

For over 20 years, ARISE has delivered crucial life skills straight into the hands of those who need them most: troubled young people perched on the edge of falling into the adult prison system. From anger management and self-esteem to job search skills, ARISE gives members of this vulnerable population the tools they need to become productive, law-abiding, successful citizens.

Individuals in need of community service hours who wish to work with ARISE have many options open to them. Costs start at a tax deductible donation of $25,000, which would fund one large or two small facilities with up to 75 students enrolled in the program. One can also choose to become an ARISE Certified Life Skills Instructor and work directly with the kids. ARISE will provide everything needed to get the program off the ground, from the initial instructor training to the materials and facility. This choice gives an individual the exceptional opportunity to interact with the youth they are helping and use their own brush with the law as a cautionary tale.

Another option is a more hands-off approach. The individual chooses any city in the United States and decides on the size of the program, and ARISE sets up the entire turn-key operation from the ground up.

Another benefit of the ARISE Good Graces program is the positive exposure it can provide. After negative publicity, teaching ARISE life skills lessons or launching an ARISE program helps restore a tarnished reputation. In addition to cleaning up their public image, prominent members of the community just might find that they walk away from their ARISE Good Graces experience forever changed. Few programs offer such a far-reaching and meaningful way to reach underprivileged youth.
