Rise's offerings are self-described as a "Full Spectrum Gestational and Gender Euphoria Care Worker." According to their website, this includes: pregnancy, labor and delivery, abortion/grief/loss, and postpartum care work with pregnant people, and gender-affirming care work with queer/trans/gender nonconforming folk undergoing gender-affirming surgery.
Rise has been practicing birthwork for six years and has been a healing practitioner for over ten years. They support Black and Brown, neurodivergent, disabled and chronically ill, queer, trans, nonbinary, and low-income individuals.
During CVD's 1965: A Summer Soiree event, Rise was recognized for their service to the birthing community and beyond. One example of Rise's dedication happened this past April 2023, when they facilitated a workshop for CVD's New Doula Orientation weekend entitled, Supporting Queer, Trans and Nonbinary People and Their Families: Full Spectrum, where they refamiliarized the newest cohort of CVDoulas with the concept of showing up for all resource denied people.

CVDoulas provides access to free and low-cost labor, postpartum, and pregnancy loss support. Our work eliminates morbidity and mortality among Black Birthing People and those resource denied in pregnancy and birth care.
