Frequently asked questions

Is Green Bay RISE already operating workshops?

Not yet. The program is in the partnership-development stage. Dates, locations, facilitators, registration, and accessibility details will be published only after they are confirmed.

Does partnership require funding?

No. A partner might contribute expertise, referrals, outreach, space, materials, access support, or another defined resource. Financial support is only one possible role.

How much time does a professional volunteer need to commit?

The role can be limited to one planning conversation, content review, panel discussion, practice session, or workshop. The scope should be clear before anyone commits.

Is RISE a job-placement program?

No. RISE supports readiness through resources, practice, feedback, and community connection. It does not guarantee employment or replace workforce agencies, case management, legal advice, or other professional services.

Can an organization refer participants without hosting?

Yes. Referral, outreach, space, professional expertise, and sponsorship are separate partnership roles.

What happens after I submit the interest form?

The project lead will review your request and follow up about your questions, possible role, and the current stage of Green Bay planning. Submitting the form does not create a public affiliation or commitment.
