Roots Wellness Center

Roots Wellness Center We build systemic advocacy into each service from an advocacy lens. We intentionally and consciously serve our communities with marginalized identities.

Roots Wellness Center offers grassroots culturally-rooted, somatic and holistic mental health services: ARMHS, CTSS, Case Management, Kid's Day Treatment for ages 6-9, Pretrial Navigation Case Management and Holistic Outpatient Substance Use Treatment Roots Wellness Center began in 2013 as a grassroots, mental health, substance use and parenting organization focused on reducing community dispariti

es within the field. We saw a need for in-home services to address the needs of individuals who have a difficult time making it to an office due to medical issues, mental health conditions, financial issues and/or lack of transportation. We're a harm-reduction, trauma informed, culturally focused community-based organization that heals trauma at the somatic level. We serve the underserved and work hard to bring about social justice. The goal is to build a peaceful and just community throughout Minnesota. We attempt to match families with staff from the same culture. We provide safe supports and services throughout and after the process through, child and family skills and in-home therapy (individual, family, couples counseling), treatment support, holistic parenting and trauma-informed yoga. All services are tailored to the unique cultural needs of the family.

Supporting our immigrant community and assisting with basic needs is one way we like to show up in the community. Housing, food security, and mental health care are essential to recovering from the devastating effects of the ICE occupation here in Minnesota. Currently, we deliver food boxes to nearly a dozen families and individuals weekly. We have also assisted with rental support, but we need additional support from community members to continue. We cannot do this alone. Thank you for your support. We couldn’t do this work without our community. Scan the QR or donate at: https://www.givemn.org/story/kue44g

Immediate openings in our virtual IOP for substance use, which is holistic, somatic and culturally rooted. As we also expand into northern counties and rural areas with ARMHS services and virtual therapy, the real and dire substance use concerns in rural areas cannot be denied. Many folks would like a trauma informed, culturally rooted, somatic and holistic treatment approach and want options outside of their smaller towns for IOP treatment!

Roots Wellness Center is a grassroots, immigrant-owned mental health and recovery services agency focused on holistic, culturally rooted, de-westernized wellness supports. We understand that systems create inequitable barriers and challenges for those with marginalized identities. We address such barriers to equitable care by providing decolonized services that view individuals and families not just within their environmental contexts and the lens of systemic oppression, but also intergenerational and decolonized healing.
 
Our mission is to expose the systematic nature of trauma and oppression, and empower the liberation of the bodies, minds, and spirits of those in our community through holistic, cultural, somatic, and systematic support.
Every contribution helps us expand services, support families, and ensure accessible care for those most affected by systemic barriers.
