Where have we been?

Where have we been?

Where are we now?

Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3

Phase 1 (2016)

We recruited stakeholders to analyze the problem, created a beginning set of system elements, and began considering a framework for a Detroit community development system.

Phase 2 (2017-2018)

We formed an Advisory Council, conducted extensive research resulting in a specific set of challenges and created Task Forces to respond to those challenges and develop test-projects for most of the elements.

Phase 3 (2019-2020)

Stakeholders will champion elements of the system, working closely with CDOs and GROs, by “test-piloting” project ideas:

  • Coordination of Capacity Building Services
  • Community Development Career Navigation Model
  • Neighborhood Vitality Success Framework
  • Neighborhood Voice and Advocacy Framework
  • At least two city-CDO funded partnerships

Simultaneously we will:

  • Activate the System Capitalization element
  • Establish a governance/oversight structure
  • Develop a process to resolve CDO coverage for all neighborhoods

Despite the many ways the arts enrich our communities, arts advocacy has never been easy. And now, when artists hit hard by the pandemic have led our communities in coping and imagining new ways forward, it’s as important as ever to make sure that the arts are central to community planning and development — and are funded appropriately. On Episode 9 of DISCOVERY, join Knight Foundation for a conversation with Connie Martinez, CEO of SV Creates, an arts service organization based in San Jose, Calif. Together, you’ll talk about how you can center the arts and artists in your city’s present and future.
