We’re looking for volunteers to join our housing, organizing, and economic development teams, and to take on specialized tasks. Let’s talk about how you can get involved.

To date, we’ve rehabbed nearly 10 homes, welcoming new families and organizations into our neighborhood. We also offer entrepreneurship training courses, host an annual street fair with thousands in attendance, and join in coalitions to promote more beautiful and secure neighborhoods. Dream of Detroit envisions a city anchored in its sustainable neighborhoods; a city where homeownership, small business development and cooperative economics, local food sourcing, and access to education and the arts are priorities of every neighborhood; and a city where compassion and mercy define the relationships of its residents.
