Working Recovery Together
Today we celebrate receiving a capital investment grant from the Government of Alberta. This Grant will allow us to complete our new Summit House facility.
This grows our capacity to 55 residents. It also allows us to increase our second stage capacity to 29 beds for a total of 84 participants, but this doesn’t mean that we’re there yet. This means we have more space for ministry as such; we need to scale up our staff team for ministry in this expanded environment.
Welcome to Rising Above
Rising Above is a registered Canadian charity located in Grande Prairie, Alberta. We are known for our Christian-based 6-Month Residential Treatment program, and the Inner Healing support we offer to members of the community as well as clients within our program. Our Residential Treatment program first started in 2007 out of a great need for treatment options in Northern Alberta. We are pleased to offer an all-encompassing program that extends help to anyone who is struggling in a cycle of defeat. This includes, but is not limited to drug and alcohol abuse, patterns of homelessness and criminal activity, gambling and pornography addiction, anger issues, anxiety disorders, shame, low self-esteem, and so on.

- Holistic
