In a non-volatile storage system, first and second substrate channel regions for an unselected NAND string are boosted during programming to inhibit program disturb. The first and second substrate channel regions are created on either side of an isolation word line. During a program pulse time period in which a program pulse is applied to a selected word line, a voltage applied to an unselected word line which extends directly over the second channel region is stepped up to a respective pre-program pulse voltage, at a faster rate at which a voltage applied to an unselected word line which extends directly over the first channel region is stepped up to a respective pre-program pulse voltage. This helps improve the isolation between the channel regions.
