🎉 Exciting News at Roots! 🎉
Join us in officially celebrating Mackenzie Johnson’s promotion to Program & Partnerships Director (full-time)!

Mackenzie first joined Roots in 2023 as a part-time Community Engagement Coordinator after downshifting her career to focus on her young family. Since then, she has brought the Provider Collaborative to life, expanded education and outreach efforts, and further streamlined communications and operations. The timing aligned perfectly for her to step into a full-time leadership role this fall! 🌟

With 15+ years of program and project management experience, Mackenzie is known for creating programs that strengthen communities, build partnerships, and spark innovation across health, recreation, and social impact.

Outside of work, she loves being on the other side of programming—as a participant with her family—and when solo, she’s happiest on a trail or enjoying tea with a friend. ☕🌲And as she steps into this new role, you may also see her “co-workers/creators,” Remy and Delaney, around Roots a little more often. 💕

☀Connect parents to each each other and to resources in our community
☀Provide a lifeline for new, expecting, and wishful parents
☀Keep our space open to anyone who walks through our doors

Please, don’t wait. Donate to Roots before September 1 to connect more families to the support they need.

Today, 12 mothers joined us at our afternoon Blossom Mom group for new and expecting mothers 🙏🙌🏽🥹

12 mothers showed up looking for connection and 12 mothers found a lifeline at Roots. It was a beautiful testament to the work that's happening here.

But here’s the truth, without your help, another parent could miss that lifeline.

It costs just over $2,100 per month to keep our support groups going which means that over the course of the summer we need to raise $6,300 simply to continue running.

Summer is coming to a close and so is the time we have to raise the funds that make programs like Blossom Mom, Fresh Air Families, and Dads Group possible.

Your gift today of $25, $50, or $500 will directly connect parents to the vital support that changes lives.

Meghan said it best:

“Roots has become a major part of my village and I will forever be grateful for the community and support it has brought me during such a tender time.”

Will you chip in and support more mothers, fathers and families to find their lifeline?

The Link to donate is in our bio or on our website.

Don't wait. Donate today!

Can you believe it? Over the past 9 years, 28 incredible women have stepped onto the Moms Like Me stage to share their raw, real, and powerful journeys into motherhood. These stories have built something extraordinary—a space for vulnerability, resilience, connection, and truth-telling that ripples far beyond a single night.

Now, as we prepare for the 10th Annual Moms Like Me, we’re dreaming big—and we want YOU to be a part of it.

We’re forming a committee of passionate volunteers to help shape this milestone event, with new energy, bold ideas, and expanded ways of gathering and storytelling.

Come join us.

1st Committee Meeting: August 20 @ 6:30 PM at Roots. Please comment below👇🏼 or reach out to suzanne@rootsfamilycollaborative.com for more information and to RSVP.
