Our Mission
At Deeper Roots, we love our fellow humans, we love animals, we love the planet, and we aim to create journeys of healing where the three meet. As a veteran-founded and operated nonprofit, we provide meaningful experiences in nature to empower survivors to reclaim their sense of self and discover new strengths and interests within.
Guided by the principles of love, empathy, resilience, and community, we’re on a mission to transform the lives of individuals who have faced the harrowing impact of abuse and trauma. Our organization seeks to create a supportive and nurturing environment where survivors can embark on a path towards healing and growth.
Our dedicated team of veterans and non-veterans are experts in their fields who understand the profound impact of trauma and are passionate about leveraging their unique insights and experiences to inspire hope and instill courage. By facilitating a diverse range of healing journeys, we aspire to break the cycle of pain and equip survivors with the tools to rewrite their stories with resilience, purpose, and a renewed sense of agency.
Deeper Roots is committed to collaboration with mental health professionals, community leaders, educational institutions, and fellow nonprofit organizations to create a comprehensive network of support for survivors. Through educational initiatives, therapeutic interventions, and community outreach, we strive to replace shadows of veterans’ pasts with the light of healing and opportunity.
We believe every individual deserves the opportunity to reclaim their narrative. We’re dedicated to helping make these transformations possible.
