United Roots at a Glance
Our ten-year track record working in the streets through community engagement using arts and media, along with our social innovation inspired philosophy, positions us uniquely to effectively enlist and impact communities traditionally left out. “Since working with United Roots I have more professional skills and I’m more confident when speaking in front of crowds. I’ve learned that I am a natural entrepreneur with the skills to change the world and my environment.”
