Our Mission
Our mission is to provide our Chicago community with empowerment programs, development training, and community services to our kids, teens, and young adults.
Our Vision
To empower our kids, teens, and young adults to become productive citizens and instill the same values in the generations to come.
Our History
The R.O.Y.O service journey began to target youth ages 5-12, teens 13-19, young adults 21-25, and south suburban communities in the Chicagoland area in 2012.
Incorporating in Oct 0f 2020 during COVID was important to us because the call to help was louder than ever. Our future goal is to reach developing communities around the world.
It is our mission and vision to restore the youth, fighting back against generational hardships like deprivation of equality, economic success, and social justice.
Handing the roots back to you
ROOTS is an acronym we use to reflect the values of our organization. Our dedicated staff and volunteers are encouraged to embody these values every day.
