Gather + Connect + Protect
Our Bear Root Resource Center strives to offer an inclusive safe space to gather locally and offer ways to connect to our expanding global network to collaborate with others. We apply Indigenous Epidemiology as a lens to teach traditional knowledge and support the well-being of our community members as a whole person (Mind, Body, Soul), and use this data to empower our community. We developed programs to enrich lives of individuals from all backgrounds to be able to fulfill their full potential. We offer resources for allies and community partners to learn how to be in right relations with BIPOC communities and implement multi-racial equitable agreements to maintain long-term commitments.
