Take Root, a fundraiser to support our programs, is a time to bring our community together and celebrate and recognize progress and expand awareness of inclusive employment for neurodivergent and disabled individuals.

With it being the the 250th anniversary of the United States and the 150th anniversary of Littleton, it is inspiring us to take a look at our own journey through the years. We want to look back at the progress that's been made to help us achieve what we've been able to today, and who were the major players who helped build that table. Now that the table is built, we want to look future forward at who has a seat at that table, and how do we keep moving the needle!

The day will include brunch, a walk through time with DIRT (aka DIRT's history), cocktails and mocktails, a silent auction, and welcoming our 2026 ambassador of the year, a previous program participant who personifies DIRT’s values and has demonstrated tremendous growth in their employment journey!
