Twin Cities RISE! Empowerment Institute

The Empowerment Institute (EI) is an external training arm of TCR!, formed with the express purpose of extending our unique Personal Empowerment program to other organizations, businesses, local schools and colleges. Personal Empowerment training is the backbone of the Twin Cities RISE! (TCR!) program and the success of those trained here.

What is Personal Empowerment?
Personal Empowerment means increasing our capacity to control our states of mind internally. It is based on the principles of cognitive restructuring and brings about the internal changes necessary for individuals to achieve long term success. The more we internally regulate our states of mind, the more powerful we feel. This feeling of internal power enables us to function at the peak of our capability. Empowerment helps all TCR! participants learn the soft and hard skills they will need daily in their new professional life, personal life and ongoing education.

This unique curriculum has been so widely recognized that many companies, nonprofits and schools have hired Twin Cities RISE! to teach Personal Empowerment to their staff and students through our Empowerment Institute. Direct service, Train-the-Trainer (T-T-T), and Empowered Supervision are the three training models used in Empowerment Institute training.

"I intend to use what I learned to help me improve as an employee and as a person. I have learned how to tell when I'm in weak mode or power mode and how to get myself to power mode."
- EI Client, Jeremiah Program Leadership Team
