About RISE Collective
Welcome to Boulder, Colorado
- In 1967, Colorado passed the first law in the nation to decriminalize abortion care.
- In 2022, Colorado codified a person's fundamental right to make reproductive health-care decisions free from government interference into state law.
- In 2024, an amendment enshrined that right in the state constitution.
Abortion at any stage of pregnancy is legal and protected in Colorado. You may safely come to Colorado for care from any state or country, and your privacy will be protected.
Our Mission
RISE is dedicated to providing the highest quality of abortion care and is grounded in our beliefs of compassionate empowerment, sustainable access, and equity. We work to ensure that every person has access to safe reproductive and gender-affirming healthcare with a humanized experience and respectful support.
Our Core Values
We provide care that is rooted in empathy, trust, and deep respect for each individual’s dignity and autonomy. We support people in making informed decisions about their reproductive health by creating a healing, nonjudgmental environment where every voice is heard and every experience is honored. Compassionate empowerment means combining emotional support with honest information and unwavering belief in our patients’ right to choose.
We are committed to breaking down systemic barriers to reproductive healthcare and ensuring equitable access for all—regardless of race, gender identity, income, immigration status, ability, or background. Equity informs every aspect of our work, from clinical care to community advocacy to the lived experiences of our staff members.
We perform safe, high-quality abortion care utilizing practices that are reliable today with an eye to evolution in future medical praxis. Through clinical excellence and operational integrity, we protect and expand access to care in our communities, across the country, and around the world.
Our Vision
We envision a world where all people have the freedom and resources to make decisions about their bodies and futures—without barriers, stigma, or fear. Through patient-centered and trauma-informed care, continuous learning, and a commitment to justice, we strive to build a future where reproductive healthcare is accessible, sustainable, and built on respect.
