About ARISE Ministry

ARISE Ministry exists to offer outreach, case management and pastoral care to those involved in the sex-trade. ARISE is a mission of the Presbytery of East Toronto, and supported by the Presbyterian Church in Canada. ARISE Ministry provides street outreach to women on Thursday nights from 11:30pm. Through outreach we seek to build relationships and provide support to those involved in the sex-trade. Our outreach partners are Yonge Street Mission and Salvation Army Corps 614. We Offer: Case Management Program: The case management program is primarily meant to serve those who are or have been involved in the sex-trade and are looking for support around exiting. It can also be offered as a preventative program for high-risk youth or for those in recovery who might need some stability. The case management program can take up to 5 participants at a time for 4 months of weekly one-on-one meetings and goal setting. Each week during the case management meeting a topic would be discussed and weekly goals would be set. Self-Defence Program: We participate in the Seana Rossi Self-Defence Program offered in partnership with Toronto BJJ every Wednesday from 4-5pm. It is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu based and we train in a Gi (Traditional Martials Arts Kimono) which is loaned weekly. The class is ongoing, completely FREE, and new-comers are welcome at any time. Please contact us for details and to sign-up!

ARISE offers many pastoral services to community members including participating in Public Worship, Funeral and Memorial Services, and offering the sacraments.
