Welcome to Tending the Roots Community of Practice Blog
June 25, 2025
Tending the Roots is a Community of Practice established by Central Toronto Youth Services. We are service providers across Turtle Island that are seeking to improve the support of families of 2SLGBTQIA+ children. We unite to pool resources and knowledge across groups and agencies to create, implement, and test promising interventions to support necessary changes inside families and across communities. .
Welcome and thank you for landing here with us. We know it is no accident that we get to greet you and invite you to take space, take time, and take root with our community.
No one comes to the earth like grass. We come like trees. We all have roots.
