Storytelling for
Social Change
Welcome! The Roots of Change Agency was founded to support nonprofits, campaigns, and activists to avoid burnout and tell empathetic stories to cultivate connections that empower social change.
What We Offer
Our goal is to make social change storytelling accessible and sustainable for all. We offer two areas of resources depending on how you relate to and participate in social change.
"Every story I write adds to me a little, changes me a little, forces me to reexamine an attitude or belief, causes me to research and learn, helps me to understand people and grow."
- Octavia Butler
