Community Spotlight: Roots Counseling & Wellness 🌿

At The Forge, we believe creativity and connection thrive when supported by a generous and caring community—and we are incredibly grateful for partners who truly live that belief.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Roots Counseling & Wellness and the amazing team behind it, Milt and Rochelle McLelland, for their continued and generous support of The Forge.

Roots has blessed our organization in multiple meaningful ways. In addition to a financial donation supporting our mission, they have graciously opened their group room to The Forge for auditions and board meetings—providing a warm, professional, and welcoming environment where creativity, courage, and collaboration can flourish.

Their generosity didn’t stop there. Roots Counseling & Wellness also invested in The Forge by paying for advertising in Iron County Today, helping us reach more families and community members and spread the word about the arts opportunities we’re building right here in Cedar City.

Roots is deeply committed to strengthening emotional wellness and connection within our community, and their support of the arts reflects their belief that creativity plays a powerful role in healing, growth, and belonging.

Thank you, Milt and Rochelle, for believing in The Forge, for sharing your space, for your generous donation, and for helping amplify our voice through local advertising. Your kindness is helping us build something truly special for Southern Utah. 💛
