Healing Roots

Healing Roots is a unique nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the mental health and well-being of Indigenous communities across North America. Founded by a team of passionate Native American mental health professionals and advocates, Healing Roots aims to bridge the gap in culturally responsive mental health services for Indigenous peoples.

Our Mission

At Healing Roots, our mission is to provide accessible, culturally grounded mental health support to Native American, Alaska Native, and First Nations individuals. We strive to:

  • Offer crisis intervention and suicide prevention services
  • Promote mental health awareness and education
  • Preserve and integrate traditional healing practices
  • Empower Indigenous communities through culturally responsive care

As we continue to grow this organization, our goals include expanding our culturally responsive services to BIPOC communities across the nation.

The All-Nations Hotline

Our flagship service is the All-Nations Hotline, a 24/7 crisis line staffed by Indigenous crisis counselors. This vital resource offers:

  • Immediate support for those experiencing mental health crises
  • Culturally sensitive intervention
  • Referrals to local Indigenous health services and resources

Our Approach

Healing Roots embraces a holistic approach to mental health that honors Indigenous wisdom and practices:

Cultural Competence

Our team of Native Crisis Responders understands the unique challenges faced by Indigenous communities, including historical trauma, cultural disconnection, and systemic barriers to care.

Traditional Healing Integration

We incorporate traditional healing methods, spiritual practices, and Indigenous knowledge systems into our approach, recognizing their vital role in mental wellness.

Community-Centered Care

Healing Roots works closely with tribal leaders, elders, and community organizations to ensure our services align with local needs and cultural values.
