4Roots Wellness Center
“Anything that increases the quality and number of relationships in a child’s life is what works best. People, not programs, change people.”
We are thrilled to finally be opening our 4Roots Wellness Center for youth!
The Center will offers:
Peer support
A Self-Care par course
Classes that boost well-being
Digital Media Lab
Adventure Pods
Deepening nature connections
Sound Healing
MASK / MBSAT: our Mindfulness-Based substance use treatment program that includes a peer-run recovery circle
These are just a few of the ways to use our center, it’s also a drop-in space for a young person to come and do their homework, socialize, or find a comfy little nook to just be.
We also serve families with our holistic, family systems lens, supporting them with practices and tools that bring ease to family tensions. We offer new ways to relate with each other from intrinsic goodness rather than from states of reactivity. No one wins in the reactivity game. We support healthier patterns to emerge.
We are currently scheduled to be open Monday - Friday from 1:00 to 6:00, during the school year.
Located at 10038 Meadow Ave, Unit C., we are across the street from the Truckee Fire Station and walking distance from Truckee High, Sierra Continuation High, and Sierra Expeditionary Learning Charter school. We are geared toward supporting teens but open for tweens or younger children who are enrolled in any of our other programs.
We know that now, more than ever, youth need ways to connect with each other, to re-group, and to re-imagine their lives. “Back to normal” isn’t on any horizon, but re-imagining is! Together, we are re-envisioning what it means to be a young person in today’s world by centering on youth voice, youth vision, and youth engagement.
We are so grateful to have strong relationships with so many incredible young people. We are honored to come together in creating a world our youth are stoked about offering them custom-fit tools for navigating the challenges of becoming a young adult. We look forward to the year ahead and can’t wait to have young people breathing life into our great new space!
