Rise Together Professional Community

Rise Together is a private professional community for Survivors and allies who are building their own paths and staying connected to the communities around them.

Rise Together brings together women across self-employment, professional life, and community engagement. Some of us are building businesses or working independently. Others are coordinating programs, organizing initiatives, or connecting people and resources through their professional and community work.

The group offers different ways to connect depending on where your interests and work take you. Our gatherings create opportunities to meet other women, develop professional relationships, exchange ideas and knowledge, and stay connected to what is happening beyond our own individual work.

You don't need to fit into one professional box to belong here. The common thread is a network of Survivors and allies building our own paths while remaining connected to one another and the communities in which we live and work. Your story is always yours to share or not share, and what happens within the private group stays within the group.

Not every gathering will be for every member, and that's intentional. Join the conversations, events, and connections that fit where you are and what you're doing.

Rise Together is organized by Rachelle Scheele, Founder of Allied Brands Collective and longtime convener of Survivor-centered communities.

We each have our own work to do and our own direction to build, but we don't have to do it disconnected from one another. Rise Together extends that work into a broader professional community for Survivors and allies.
