Roots Down is proud to partner with GreenHive, our 501(c)(3) counterpart and youth-powered leadership program rooted in climate justice, equity, and access.

​

The GreenHive is an ecosystem of students, young leaders, and other community members working to reimagine public spaces as regenerative and sustainable community assets, while advocating for climate action.

​

The GreenHive Training Program helps to develop emerging climate leaders as they prepare to enter the green workforce through paid leadership training in policy, advocacy, earth stewardship, and the arts. Our values lean on environmental justice, amplifying underrepresented voices in the climate movement, as well as storytelling and public art.

​

Our main collaboration with the GreenHive is the Library Transition Plan. An environmental initiative by Super District 6 Commissioner Ted Terry, which aims to address sustainable land use in DeKalb County. This plan aims to transform all 23 DeKalb County libraries into safe, vibrant, regenerative spaces that support food security, build climate resilience, and reconnect people with nature. This collaboration models a new, community-driven approach to earth stewardship while empowering the next generation of local environmental leaders in Metro Atlanta.
