NC ROOTS Hub
Strengthening rural health through local partnership, collaboration, and community-led transformation
About NC ROOTS
NC ROOTS (Rural Organizations Orchestrating Transformation for Sustainability) is a statewide initiative focused on improving health outcomes in rural communities across North Carolina.
This work brings together local partners, providers, and community leaders to strengthen access to care, address health-related needs, and build long-term capacity in rural health systems.
The NC ROOTS Hub model is designed to support collaboration, coordination, and community-informed solutions that reflect the unique needs of each region.

Trillium’s Role
Trillium Health Resources is the NC ROOTS Hub Lead for Regions 2 and 5.
As part of this work, we help build strong local networks of partners who work together to improve health care in rural communities. Over the next five years, NC ROOTS Hubs will support rural communities by:
- Improving mental health and substance use services
- Helping doctors, clinics, and services work better together
- Using digital tools to improve care and outcomes
- Expanding access to primary care
- Strengthening and growing the health care workforce
Trillium has long invested in people, communities, and new ways of delivering care. These efforts help more people get the care they need, reduce gaps in services, and support individuals and families to live healthier lives.
As a NC ROOTS Hub Lead, Trillium is proud to serve rural North Carolina. We will use our experience, partnerships, and resources to help strengthen local health care and support long-term improvements across the region.
