Taproot Earth
Our legacy is rooted in the disaster recovery work in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina when the climate crisis was revealed in full force. In the backdrop of Black and Indigenous communities left out of federal recovery systems, the Gulf Coast Center for Law & Policy emerged to provide relief and legal assistance to survivors across the region. In the years that followed, frontline communities from the Gulf South to the Global South have witnessed more devastating storms, droughts, wildfires, heat, and land loss. Taproot Earth was founded to create connections and power across issues, movements, and geographies.
