The Roots

A Home for Community

The Roots is Project Worthmore’s home for community, connection, and opportunity. Designed to support newcomers as they build their lives in Colorado, this space brings together the programs, services, and relationships that help individuals and families thrive.

Here, newcomers can access nutritious food, learn English, receive healthcare, connect with neighbors, attend events, and find the support they need, all under one roof. Every space was intentionally designed to be welcoming, dignified, and centered around the people we serve.

More than a building, The Roots reflects Project Worthmore’s commitment to creating a place where everyone belongs. It represents the power of community coming together to invest in brighter futures, stronger connections, and new beginnings.

Looking Ahead

The next chapter is already underway.

Our next goal is to open our new medical clinic, expanding access to affordable, culturally responsive healthcare for newcomers in our community.

We’re currently seeking support to help fund the clinic’s startup costs and bring this vision to life. If you or someone in your network has connections to individuals, foundations, or organizations that may be interested in supporting this effort, we’d love to connect. Please reach out to Ashley@projectworthmore.org

We are especially grateful to The Colorado Health Foundation for their generous support in funding the clinic build-out and medical equipment, helping make this next chapter possible!
