Rise
Rise is a civil rights nonprofit that teaches ordinary people how to write and pass their own laws. Founded in 2014 by Amanda Nguyen after her own experience with a broken rape-kit system, Rise wrote and passed the federal Sexual Assault Survivors' Rights Act unanimously through Congress, then scaled the model into state laws, a landmark UN resolution, and Rise Justice Labs - an accelerator that trains survivors and allies to turn personal pain into passed legislation.
