Welcome to Roots

Connecting Montana families to the support they need from preconception to parenthood

Are you growing your family?

​Through our support groups, programs, classes and special events, paired with our incredible resource collaborative, we are able to raise awareness about perinatal mental health, normalize the expectations of the perinatal period, and strengthen support networks for our growing community, ultimately creating an vast safety net for the hundreds of families undergoing this major life transition each year.

Roots Family Collaborative is a 501 (c) (3) non profit organization dedicated to serving families in Gallatin and Park Counties.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?

Pregnancy, birth and having a baby is a time of exponential growth that can often trigger intense emotional responses from happiness and joy, to fear and anxiety. Explore our FAQs about postpartum mental health to learn more.

At Roots Family Collaborative, we know support from preconception, to pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond is not a luxury - it’s a necessary part of growing a family.

We connect parents to parents, parents to professionals, and professionals with one another during this unique, and often challenging developmental stage.
