Our Roots
R.O.O.T.S. (Reaching Outside of Traditional Schooling) Youth+ Development Program, a community full of passionate educators that strive to bridge the gap in traditional learning, teach self-sufficiency, and promote altruism within our local community.
Our Mission
We believe there is a monumental need to heal the disconnection between the people themselves, and the earth that provides for us. We are inspired to help raise up a generation of children who are deeply connected to the world around them, have the knowledge and practical life skills to live self-sufficiently, while promoting altruism to build community. Introducing children to these skills at a young age will establish an amazing foundation for their futures.

Talon's Journey
What a complete pleasure and honor it was to be awarded Top 38 Women in Business in DE, in Delaware Today, as a Power Player! That's less than 1% of women in business in Delaware!!!! We had such a great time at the luncheon, met so many other amazing women out there killing it! It was a bit surreal but it validated all of our hard work, passion, and dedication to our community! I cannot wait to continue growing these relationships and our wonderful ROOTS community! Thanks SO much for all YOU do to help support our mission
