A warm welcome from Rebeccah Bennett, Founder and Root Teacher of InPower Institute.

InPower Institute is a leader in community healing and social transformation, based in St. Louis, Missouri with reach from Oakland to Ghana.

Since 2010, we’ve brought people together to heal, grow, and build a more just and vibrant world by creating an ecosystem of care that supports individuals and families, organizations, communities and the Earth.

Explore our offerings

  • Life can pull us in a thousand directions—and sometimes away from ourselves. InPower offers space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most. Through supportive, holistic care, we help individuals and families heal, grow, and build deeper relationships rooted in love and purpose.

  • How we work together matters. InPower partners with organizations, teams, and groups to build cultures rooted in care, connection, and purpose. Through customized workshops and retreats, we support collective growth, strengthen relationships, and help teams align their values with how they show up every day.

  • Community is where healing begins—and where harm is often held. InPower supports neighborhoods and frontline change makers in cultivating spaces for grief, resilience, and renewal through ceremony, healing-centered crisis care, and culturally rooted programs. Together, we transform collective wounds into pathways of restoration and power.

  • Healing with the Earth is at the heart of InPower.
    Through land-based rituals, ancestral practices, and sacred partnerships, we help people reconnect with the land, their cultural roots, and one another. Our work reminds us that collective healing begins where we are most rooted—in Sprit, soil, and community.

Relax. Remember. Be Well. Imagine. Thrive. Rest. Dream.

Like our ancestors’ dreams written in BOLD across the brick walls of time, healing takes root — especially in the most tumultuous of places.

At InPower, we grow spaces where purpose is remembered, power is reclaimed, and transformation is possible.

Whether you’re just beginning to bloom or have been tending your healing for years — you’re not alone, and you’re right on time!

InPower Institute, alongside our Black Healers Collective and members of Spirit Rising, is honored to be part of Show Me Hope Missouri’s Crisis Counseling Program (CCP), supporting individuals and communities impacted by the May 2025 tornado.

We are carrying out this work in partnership with Freedom Community Center, a Black-led organization rooted in North St. Louis that centers communal healing, survivor-led solutions, and nonviolent approaches to safety, accountability, and repair in communities most impacted by harm.

Through this collaborative effort, our trained crisis counseling teams offer emotional support, coping and wellness practices, community education, and resource connections to help people navigate the ongoing effects of disaster and displacement. Our work is community-based, culturally responsive, and grounded in care — meeting people where they are, in neighborhoods, gathering spaces, and trusted community settings.

If you, your family, or people you know or support were impacted by the tornado and can still benefit from listening spaces, wellness support, group offerings, or community-based outreach, we invite you to contact InPower’s direct line (314) 563-2073 or email at Admin@InPowerInstitute.com.

We are here to walk alongside our city as we heal and rebuild together.
