A portable aid for assisting an invalid or elderly person in rising from a sitting position includes a portable vertical support and a brace member attached and stored with the portable vertical support. The brace member extends away from the vertical support and has a dimension in the horizontal direction sufficient to extend across the seat of the chair to permit a sitting person to push downwardly upon the brace member for assistance in rising to a standing position.
