About Healthy Roots Lab

Our Mission

Promoting optimal health and preventing chronic diseases for everyone: We identify and leverage community resources, including peer support and local organizations, to implement programs that prevent chronic diseases like diabetes. Additionally, we examine how nonprofit health systems tackle determinants of health in underserved, low-resource, and rural areas.
