Restorative Housing and Food Access Summitt

If you are a resident from Detroit we want to hear from you, Your concerns, your stories, your questions, and your lived experiences are not side notes here; they are the foundation of this gathering. You deserve to be heard without fear, without dismissal, and without being talked over.

The Restorative Housing & Food Access Summit is a space where we name what’s really happening in our neighborhoods: inaccessible housing, rising costs, food deserts, modern‑day redlining, and the emotional weight these systems place on families. Together, we’ll explore how these issues intersect and how collective action can bring relief, dignity, and change.

This summit includes:

• A resident‑led table discussion to share concerns and lived experiences
