Help Plan Detroit’s Tomorrow, Today!

The Plan Detroit team invites you to join us for interactive policy workshops where YOUR voice will directly shape our city's future. This is your opportunity to influence the decisions that will affect Detroit neighborhoods, environment, culture, transportation, and economy for years to come.

These interactive workshops will focus on creating practical policies that address the real needs of Detroiters. Each session tackles a specific aspect of city life:

  • Neighborhoods & Housing: Creating vibrant, affordable communities
  • Open Space & Environment: Building a greener, healthier Detroit
  • Arts & Culture: Celebrating and expanding Detroit's creative identity
  • Mobility: Reimagining how we move around our city
  • Jobs & Economy: Growing opportunities for all Detroiters

What you'll do: Participate in guided discussions, collaborate with fellow residents, and work directly with city planners to develop policy recommendations.

What we'll provide: Light refreshments, all necessary materials, and a welcoming space for every voice to be heard.
