CLUB RISE - Community Engagement Center

At WAI-IAM, Inc. (Who Am I, I Am Me!) recovery is personal. WAI-IAM, Inc. was founded in 2013 by a mother and son who had personally struggled through the world of addiction and recovery to develop a Lansing-based nonprofit with a mission to change the face of recovery and combat the growing epidemic of drug and alcohol abuse. WAI-IAM’s RISE Recovery Community (RISE) offers 11 well-maintained, structured living homes to serve 72 members, along with Club RISE, a 4,200-sq.-ft. facility for sober-living community activities. RISE helps individuals overcome barriers, meet basic needs and gain support for health, home, purpose and a community. RISE has a strict Diversity and Inclusion Policy and has served nearly 2,000 individuals since inception and continues to include BIPOC, women, persons with disabilities, veterans, LGBTQ+, and economically disadvantaged.
