New Roots Institute is a nonprofit organization empowering the next generation with knowledge and training to end factory farming.
Factory farming is one of the most destructive systems on the planet–fueling climate change, harming animals, and exploiting people and the environment. We believe students have the power to change that.
Through our New Roots Institute Fellowship, high school and college students learn to channel their passion into real change. Fellows develop foundational leadership and advocacy skills while directing campaigns that normalize plant-based eating and reduce animal product consumption.
Upon completing the fellowship, alumni go on—with our continued support—to develop and empower other leaders to create change in their communities toward our shared goal of ending factory farming.
