Beyond the labels
Hope without pressure. Belonging without judgment. Los Nola Rising exists to remind people they are not broken, not alone, and not defined by their past. This is a place to show up, breathe, and begin again—together.
Our story
Los Nola Rising was born from lived experience. From knowing what it’s like to be shaped by a world that tells you who you are before you get to decide. We exist to interrupt that story. To help people wake up, reclaim their worth, and rise—together.
Our inspiration
Los Nola Rising was inspired by lived experience—by knowing what it feels like to be shaped by struggle, labels, and expectations that don’t tell the whole truth of who you are. It came from witnessing how addiction, trauma, incarceration, and life setbacks can disconnect people from their worth, not because they are broken, but because they were never given the space or support to heal. We exist to interrupt that cycle.
How we help
Los Nola Rising hopes to help people feel less alone and more connected to themselves, their community, and their potential. We want individuals to experience relief from shame, build trust in themselves again, and realize they don’t have to have everything figured out to belong. Through consistent, recovery-safe spaces and shared resources, we hope people leave feeling more grounded, more hopeful, and more capable of taking the next healthy step in their lives—whatever that looks like for them.
"I can't express how much Los Nola Rising has meant to me. It's a place where I truly feel seen and supported, a place where I'm reminded that I'm not broken, and that I can rewrite my story, surrounded by a community that believes in me."
