what we believe

  • All individuals are interconnected, and in order to be in true solidarity with one another, we must work to understand each other and learn our individual and collective histories. We cannot be free until we are all free. 

  • It is our moral and ethical responsibility to ourselves and our communities to commit to the dismantling of oppression at the internal, interpersonal, institutional and structural levels. 

  • Building strong connections and community are at the root of any long-lasting social change. 

  • Every individual has a story that is multidimensional, and when those complex and beautiful stories are shared and heard, people begin to heal. Individual healing is undeniably linked to the healing of our society and earth

our mission

under revision & recreation. come back soon

but the long and short of it is: we want to co-create spaces that remind us of our wholeness, equip us with the tools to challenge injustice and inequity, and build a world that is grounded in compassion, justice and reciprocity :)

Dream it.

Our vision at The ROOTS Project, Inc. is for our participants to cultivate a stronger and more whole sense of self, to be true allies in creating a more equitable and just society, and to begin to dismantle oppression at internal, interpersonal, and institutional levels.

Build it.

At ROOTS, we believe that every individual has a story that is multidimensional, and when those complex and beautiful stories are shared and heard, people begin to heal. Individual healing is undeniably linked to the healing of our society and earth.
