Embrace Her Roots empowers marginalized and underserved girls in Greater Chatham County to become leaders and changemakers by prioritizing their mental health, emotional well-being, and personal agency. Our programs equip girls with the tools to understand their world, advocate for their rights, and take control of their futures. Using a continuum approach and creative platforms, we focus on developing leadership, resilience, and a strong sense of identity.

We create safe spaces where girls can process their emotions, develop self-awareness, and cultivate coping strategies. Our holistic approach not only provides essential life skills—such as problem-solving, financial literacy, and advocacy—but also nurtures the emotional strength and mental clarity needed to lead with compassion and create lasting change. At Embrace Her Roots, we are dedicated to supporting girls from adolescence into adulthood, ensuring they grow into empowered, mentally strong, and confident leaders.
