Project Summary:

As social, economic, and climate landscapes change, individuals and families tend to move to where they can find a suitable community. Yet, moving is a huge risk that not many can afford to take, and not everyone is aware of what opportunities may even exist. Having access to digestible migration-related information is especially challenging for minority and immigrant communities. Meanwhile, there is a spatial mismatch between where services and organizations are located and where minority and immigrant communities reside.

reRoot is a decision-making support platform that uses the US Census data to assist minority and disenfranchised communities within the United States to migrate and make more informed migration decisions outside of existing networks and word-of-mouth.
