The courses promote engaged and active citizenry, require out-of-the-box creative thinking, and bring together individuals from different backgrounds to co-create and share resources.

We’re currently partnered with Marcus Garvey Academy, on Detroit’s east side, and Detroit Community High School, in northwest Detroit’s Brightmoor neighborhood.
