Rize & Thrive is our weekday group program, an NDIS day program on the Gold Coast built for teenagers and young adults living with disability. It runs every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Participants from the Gold Coast, Brisbane and surrounding areas can enquire about joining.
Rize & Thrive gives participants a welcoming place to spend time with others. It also creates opportunities to explore interests and develop everyday skills.
Activities take place at the Rize Hub and throughout the Gold Coast community. This variety keeps the program engaging while building confidence in different settings.
We do not treat skill development like a classroom exercise. Instead, participants learn through cooking, planning, creating, exploring and working together.
The program operates on the Gold Coast. However, Brisbane participants can contact us to discuss suitability and possible transport arrangements.
Rize & Thrive runs every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Each day brings a different mix of activities, shaped around participants’ goals, interests and choices.
Participants get out and about in their local community, visiting parks, shops, cafés and attractions with support close by.
Planning a meal, shopping for ingredients and cooking together builds practical skills for everyday life.
Participants practise catching buses and trains with support, building the confidence to get around more independently.
Shared activities make it easier to meet people, build friendships and feel part of a group.
Art, craft, music and group projects give participants space to express themselves and try something new.
Active sessions, from walks to games and movement activities, help participants stay active in a fun and supportive way.
Themed days, special events and celebrations give the group something exciting to look forward to together.
Participants have a say in what they do. Making choices and trying new things builds independence at their own pace.
Contact us from the Gold Coast or Brisbane to discuss availability, suitability and transport.
