Progress Dashboard

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

IFF’s Stronger Nonprofits Initiative

August 13, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

IFF’s Stronger Nonprofits Initiative (SNI) returns to Detroit starting in October 2020. The program was established to provide free access to financial management and real estate resources for nonprofit organizations led by and/or serving people of color.

In collaboration with Fiscal Management Associates (FMA), the 14-month intensive program focuses on nonprofits right here in Detroit and includes: 

  • Customized one-on-one financial coaching 
  • Expert panel discussions and special events 
  • Peer collaboration with other Detroit leaders of color 
  • Up to $10,000 worth of real-estate consultation for your organization’s facility needs
  • And more! 

During this time of unprecedented uncertainty, it is more important than ever that nonprofits led by leaders of color remain resilient so they can continue supporting communities for years to come.

For more information about SNI and to apply for the Detroit cohort, visit strongernonprofits.org or email IFF at SNIDetroit@iff.org. SNI is made possible with grant funding from JPMorgan Chase & Co.
