Raíces de Bienestar

BIPOC-Led Organization

Mission

Our mission is to improve and strengthen the mental health and emotional wellbeing of the Latine community through culturally-grounded & evidence-based clinical services, community programs, training and education. 

Bottom Line for Portland

Raíces fills a critical need for culturally-specific, community-centered mental health & healing services for the Latine community. The 2023- 2024 fiscal year, we served over 5000 Latine community members with our trauma-informed programs & mental health services.  The majority of our participants are monolingual Spanish speaking and first generation immigrants. We focus on improving mental health equitably and “bringing mental health to the people” - reducing many barriers that exist for folks to engage in mental health services. 

Quote

"Raíces has raised a lot of awareness in the community about mental health. Now we hear the community talk about stress" - Program Participant

 

“[the community program] felt very comfortable, like being with friends… it is very nice to know that they understand you, not because we speak the same language, but because of our biculturalism.”  - Program Participant

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Raíces is a mental health non-profit for the Latine community by the Latine community. All our clinical services and programs are provided in Spanish and lead by bi-lingual, bi-cultural clinicians and traditional health workers. We are guided by a 100% Latine community advisory board, 90% of our staff are Latinx, and 60% of our Board are Latinx.
