RIZE Massachusetts is a Boston-based nonprofit foundation focused on funding solutions to end the opioid overdose crisis in Massachusetts. As the sole public-private partnership dedicated to this mission, it aims to ensure people with substance use disorders have access to care and experience better health and quality of life. It supports community partners, builds networks, and develops programming that uses novel approaches to overdose prevention, while seeking to broaden the evidence base and inform policy. The organization operates within the philanthropic fundraising sector, collaborating with government and the treatment and recovery community to elevate programs with promise. In May 2026, the foundation announced leadership changes to its Board of Directors, naming Joy Rosen as chair and adding Audrey Shelto and Marylou Sudders as board members.
