A place to put down new roots.
Roots Renewed offers structured, supportive independent living for adults reentering the community, escaping domestic situations, or facing housing challenges — built on dignity, accountability, and community.
To provide safe, structured, dignified independent living where adults in reentry, those leaving unsafe home situations, and neighbors facing housing instability can rebuild stability, self-worth, and community — one honest day at a time.
A home for people in transition.
We welcome adults who need a safe, stable place to live while they get their footing — whether you're returning from incarceration, leaving a domestic situation, aging out of a program, or simply priced out of stable housing.
