Arise Creations - New Life Centers - Humboldt Park

Arise is a social enterprise for teens on the west side of Chicago. They function as a creative jewelry business that also provides mentorship in entrepreneurial and life skills to each participant. Through the Arise program youth participants earn an educational stipend, teaching the value of their time and skills. Every piece is handcrafted by the youth participants and has a biblical inspiration. The youth explore God's truth as they learn the message behind each piece and gain leadership skills. A typical class looks like relationship building, reflection time, a lesson on Jesus or entrepreneurial skills, and time to learn and create the jewelry sold. Arise youth are also trained in sales at vendor events and conferences, gaining confidence and ownership of the skills they've gained.
