Rooted in Wellness: A Community Initiative in Dracut

In the heart of Dracut, a new wave of holistic health and wellness is taking root, thanks to the inspiring efforts of Kerri Foisy. Since opening the doors to Rooted Wellness Company in February, Foisy has quickly become a beacon of support and community engagement. With a vision to elevate the importance of holistic and mental health services, she has initiated the first-ever Dracut Rooted in Wellness Week, scheduled for October 14-18. This week-long event aims to spotlight local businesses dedicated to improving the health and wellness of the community.

The Vision Behind Rooted in Wellness Week

Kerri Foisy believes that holistic and mental health services are essential for fostering a healthy community. “Holistic and mental health is so important, and there are so many of us working together to help improve the health and wellness for others,” she stated. Her initiative seeks to honor and acknowledge the local businesses that are making a significant impact on the lives of residents. By promoting awareness of the various resources available in Dracut, Foisy hopes to empower individuals to take charge of their health and well-being.
