Our Current Programs

Step Up & Shine

A structured, supportive group program designed for teens to move, reflect, and engage in open conversations around body image, peer pressure, family dynamics, emotional regulation, and overall mental wellness.

Sessions integrate guided discussion, movement-based activities, creative expression, and grounding exercises to support confidence-building, self-awareness, and nervous system regulation.

The full program is currently being implemented in partnership with a residential center, with a community-based, condensed version offered at Central Green Park (La Centerra) to increase accessibility and engagement in public spaces.

Safe Space

A low-pressure, judgment-free virtual group on Instagram & Nextdoor open to individuals of all ages experiencing any form of anxiety. These sessions create a supportive space to slow down, breathe, and connect without the expectation to share or perform.

Our Annual Community Intiatives

Back To School Annual Drive

The Back-to-School Fundraiser is an annual summer initiative designed to support foster and low-income youth by providing essential school supplies for the upcoming school year.

In Summer 2025, ARISE FIT expanded beyond our partner Boys & Girls Country to support 184 foster and low-income children across multiple communities. Through in kind donations and sponsorships from four different companies, students received essential supplies to help them begin the school year with confidence and stability. For 2026, we have secured a partnership support from Cinco Ranch HOA

Moms & Babies in Need Annual Donation Drive

The Moms & Babies in Need Donation Drive is an annual initiative held each fall through winter, focused on supporting expecting and new mothers, for single moms and women receiving shelter support.

Through generous community and partner contributions, ARISE FIT collects in-kind donations such as diapers, wipes, baby and maternal care items. In our most recent drive (10/23/25 - 1/5/26) donations included new diapers and wipes, an in-kind merchandise basket from Chick-fil-A, and in-kind support from Mirus Academy.
