At The Rooted Wellness Institute™, leadership is community. Our Board of Directors, interns, and team members bring together expertise, lived experience, and a shared commitment to advancing mental health education and wellness in historically underserved communities. Each person plays a vital role in shaping our vision, carrying our mission, and ensuring that the needs and voices of our communities—especially Black women and non-binary individuals—remain at the center of our work.

Why Our Team Matters

We believe that healing begins with connection. That’s why our team reflects the diversity, resilience, and wisdom of the communities we serve. Together, we create spaces where care, equity, and cultural grounding inform every aspect of our work.

Growing Together

Our collective continues to grow as we expand our programs and partnerships. Each member—whether board, staff, or intern—is carefully selected to ensure alignment with our mission and values. As we grow, so does our capacity to nurture healing and wellness across generations.
