About TWIN CITIES RISE

Twin Cities R!SE is a Minneapolis-based workforce development nonprofit that provides personal empowerment training, career skills instruction, internships, job-search support, and employment placement for adults facing economic and racial barriers. The organization pairs classroom training with employer partnerships and two years of one-on-one coaching after job placement to support long-term employment stability. Founded in 1993 by Steve Rothschild, Twin Cities R!SE emphasizes market-driven training and serves primarily low-income people and communities of color. In recent years the organization has expanded its Empowerment Institute and received a 2025 legislative appropriation to grow workforce training and its youth personal-empowerment curriculum.
