About Us
Detroit Impact incorporated in 1991 with the goals of bringing resources and creative empowerment to the residents of West Detroit. Our first task is helping low income and at risk youth to develop a sound value system, strong personal motivation and positive self-esteem.
What We Do
We empower youth to become responsible, engaged community members through partnerships with parents, schools, churches, businesses, and neighborhood residents.
The Detroit Impact Effect
Detroit Impact has become a beacon for West-side youth in Detroit—providing safe spaces, mentorship, and programs that help low-income and at-risk young people build strong values, gain academic and technological skills, and rise above adversity.
We are the difference
A legacy of mentorship. A future of leaders.
We are building on our legacy with a bold plan to expand opportunities and strengthen our reach for the next generation.
