the ROOTS is a transitional residential safe haven for foster teens between the ages of 14-18. These teens are often placed in various foster homes with 40% of these children being moved to 4 different homes between the ages of 13-18. These children suffer from many different mental health issues and often lack the resources needed to improve their physical and mental situations. These health issues can stem from the instability of a place to call home and the changing environments of schools and friendships. The building is to act as a bridge between different social classes by promoting mental health for all male and female teenagers in Atlanta and the greater area. the ROOTS will provide a safe environment for the residents and other youth to express themselves and grow mentally strong with varrying basic life skill building programs.
