Deep Roots aims to instill leadership qualities in youths and break down the stigma associated with race and mental health. Kids will also be taught to advocate for a positive change.

The program especially seeks to bring in youths who would otherwise be marginalized due to financial or cultural barriers.

Eligible candidates can also receive National Coaching Level 1, First Aid, and High Five Principles of Healthy Child Development certifications for free through courses offered through the weekends in April by the YMCA of Oakville.
