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

Co.act’s Advocacy, Civic Engagement and Supporting Social Movements as 501©3 Organizations Webinar

September 17, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am

COVID-19 has caused upheaval in just about every aspect of society and has highlighted the deep social inequities many nonprofits are working to address. As 501©3 organizations, how can we effectively advocate for those we serve and go deeper in our engagement of social movements that support an anti-racist and equity-centered new way forward? 

In this interactive session you will explore several opportunities to advance this critical work that are centered in social justice, advocacy and civic engagement, while balancing legal considerations in maintaining our 501©3 status. This session will include time for Q&A.
