ACTIVE PROJECT
Deeply Rooted uses the healing power of nature to promote health equity, well-being, and environmental justice. The collaborative – which is led by the Center for Health Justice in partnership with community development corporations, faith-based organizations, schools, and grassroots greening organizations – has planted more than 1,000 trees, greened more than 1 million square feet of vacant lots, and funded dozens of local initiatives that care for or celebrate nature in neighborhoods in West and Southwest Philadelphia.
