Connect to nature.
Find your footing.
Discover your path.
Edgewood’s Roots to Rise program for youth offers nature-based mentoring that supports emotional health and resilience for youth ages 10-14 in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Nature has a way of helping us breathe a little deeper, stand a little taller, and feel more connected.
Whether you’re planting seeds, exploring trails, or taking in the natural sounds of the outdoors, Roots to Rise invites you to step outside and discover the power of nature to feel calmer, stronger, and more connected.
