Creating Ecosystems of Care

Heart, Promise, Community

We are a collective of health and healing justice practitioners committed to creating liberatory systems of care that alleviate the impact of oppression on health. RCC draws on culturally rooted, communal healing practices to support the full picture of wellbeing: mind, body, spirit, community, and environment.

This work comes to life across three connected areas:

  • Transforming how organizations operate

  • Supporting how communities heal

  • Reclaiming how healing is understood and practiced culturally and spiritually

We know a lot of people do this work. However, it’s the way we do it that feels authentically unique.

Help Us Grow

The Root Wellness Center (RWC) is the 501c3 non-profit sister organization to the Root Cause Collective. RWC is a North Carolina health and healing justice hub working to counter the psychological impacts of collective trauma and systemic harm on health by:

  • Designing non-carceral, community healing interventions

  • Building trauma-responsive community care programs

  • Training community leaders in Ecowomanist community care strategies

Through a unique combination of design, evaluation, and training in intergenerational community health and wellness strategies, RWC is redefining how marginalized communities access healthcare by replacing traditional carceral care solutions with community-rooted, community-shaped, and community-led ecosystems of care.
