Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Roots focuses on housing support for women in recovery operating two sober living facilities: the Hale House in Memphis for six women and the Ellis House in Jackson for five women and three children. These homes provide a safe environment for healing. In 2024 we assisted 30 women in Memphis and 12 women along with four children in Jackson. Our goal is to empower women for sustainable recovery and help them reintegrate into their families and communities offering housing support until they achieve financial independence.$0$0
Roots Bridging the Gap program is a fund used to help our residents with rent medicine and other expenses in an emergency. This creates housing security because without this safety net a small emergency can cause housing insecurity. At Roots we believe all women should be afforded the opportunity to recover in a safe environment no matter their socio-economic situation. We waived $9,000 toward rental assistance to our women in 2024$0$0
The Roots Spiritual Retreat in a Tennessee National Park offers a weekend for our residents filled with activities like swimming boating workshops art 12-step yoga healing circles meditation and nature walks. Self-reflection is essential for spiritual growth and sustainable sobriety. Roots Recovery Communities fosters an environment for well-being and personal transformation.$0$0
