Our Stakeholders
The core partners are the initiators of the BECDD process, and have since become part of the Phase Three BECDD Steering Committee. Our stakeholders comprise representatives from ground-level CDOs, GROs and their partners in the government, philanthropy, academic, civic and business sectors. These stakeholders have engaged in our process in a variety of ways — on our Steering Committee, our Advisory Council; or as participants in our Kitchen Cabinets (2016), Planning Teams (2017), Task Forces (2018–2021), Stakeholder Forums (2019–2020), Alignment Forums (2021), Discussion Groups (2021) or our Annual Summits. Explore our entire stakeholder list here.
Core Partners
Community Development Advocates of Detroit, Lawrence Technological University and Michigan Nonprofit Association were our three core partners and initiating sponsors.
Representatives from these organizations served as our de facto “board of directors,” guiding our process and supporting the day-to-day BECDD staff of two. As our system developed, our core partners’ role pivoted from guiding the process to serving on the Steering Committee with other stakeholders.
Community Development Advocates of Detroit (CDAD)
For 20 years, CDAD has served as a key entity supporting community development in Detroit. CDAD’s 2008–2010 thought-leadership played a critical role in developing the original thinking and strategies to create an equitable community development system in Detroit.
Lawrence Technological University (LTU)
LTU was our academic partner, ensuring our research was comprehensive, complete and applicable. Our work with LTU also is helping to create a pipeline of leaders that includes academic tracks for community development.
Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA)
MNA is a statewide membership organization dedicated to serving the diverse nonprofit sector through civic engagement, capacity-building, data and technology, training and advocacy. MNA has played a crucial role in helping us create the system for building the capacity of Detroit CDOs and GROs and serves as fiduciary for BECDD.
BECDD Steering Committee
At the beginning of 2019, the Core Partners and Advisory Council members made a decision to create a new body of 15 organizations representing our broad diversity of stakeholders called the “BECDD Steering Committee” (BSC). This group has overseen the last phase of the BECDD system-building process, working with experts to design and launch the overall system coordination structure and process, shepherd and help integrate the “test projects” that were developed out of the 2018 Task Forces, and working with task forces to finalize the long-term system capitalization strategy.

BECDD Stakeholder Forums
Comprised of representatives from ground-level CDOs, GROs and their partners in the government, philanthropy, academia, social justice/civic sector, policy makers and business, the open-invitation “Stakeholder Forums” are a regular series of events held around the City, where the BECDD seeks advice and insight; and important-but-challenging topics related to our neighborhoods are openly discussed. This regular feedback is helping to inform the BSC in their decision making.
2019–2020 Stakeholder Forum Topics

- What IS Community Development anyway? Where is it happening in Detroit? Why is it in some neighborhoods and not others? How do we get it in all of our neighborhoods? (June 26, 2019)

- Community Organizing in Detroit: What Is It? Why Is It Important? (November 21, 2019)

BECDD Alignment Forums
In 2021, as part of the work of the System Capitalization Task Force, four “Alignment Forums” are being sponsored to promote alignment on key resources and issues in community development, and to delve into some principles put forth in the BECDD Paper: “Equitable Community Development in Detroit.”
The Forum Topics:
FORUM #1: “SEEKING ALIGNMENT: HOW DO WE GET TO EQUITABLE DEVELOPMENT TOGETHER”?
FORUM #2: “SEEKING ALIGNMENT: CAN WE, TOGETHER, MAKE CRA WORK FOR DETROIT’S NEIGHBORHOODS?”
FORUM #3: “SEEKING ALIGNMENT: IS THERE COMMITMENT, CAPITAL AND CAPACITY FOR EQUITABLE DEVELOPMENT IN DETROIT’S NEIGHBORHOODS?”
FORUM #4: “SEEKING ALIGNMENT: WHAT ABOUT POWER-BUILDING FOR EQUITY-CENTERED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT IN DETROIT?
