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

Update from Michigan Coalition Against Homelessness

December 31, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

From Michigan Coalition Against Homelessness 

The Michigan Legislature passed a bill today that will provide much needed relief for low-income Michiganders and support for our businesses and vaccine coordination. Unfortunately, rental assistance was not included, though we applaud the Legislature and our Governor for putting forward a package that will extend financial support for struggling Michiganders. You can read an outline of the package here or the full text of the bill here.

Congress also moved this weekend on a relief package that does provide $25 billion in rental assistance and an extension of the CDC eviction moratorium until Jan 31, 2021. The National Low Income Housing Coalition estimates that this would bring over $600 million into Michigan and you can read more about their analysis here. The bill sets rules and restrictions about how the funding can be used, and we’ll be following closely to understand the impact this will have on our existing statewide Eviction Diversion Program.
