Roots of Renewal is a civic and social organization based in New Orleans, Louisiana, focused on reintegrating formerly incarcerated young men through a construction-centered program. The organization purchases blighted properties in Central City, renovates them under the supervision of licensed contractors, and employs program participants to learn construction trades while also receiving professional development and social services as needed. At the program’s conclusion, renovated homes are sold at affordable prices to community first-time buyers, and graduates are placed into long-term employment. Founded in 2015, the group positions itself within the nonprofit housing and community redevelopment space, addressing neighborhood blight and housing affordability while creating pathways to work for youth reentry participants.
