Detroit Vacant Property Campaign (DVPC)

The Detroit Vacant Property Campaign (DVPC) is an initiative of Detroit LISC led by Community Legal Resources (CLR).  The DVPC involves the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning, Community Development Advocates of Detroit (CDAD), the City of Detroit, community groups, neighborhood associations, faith-based organizations, and city residents.  The DVPC is working with Detroit communities affected by vacant and foreclosed properties to empower Detroit residents to reduce the negative effects and encourage productive reuse by turning these vacant properties into neighborhood assets.

The DVPC’s Vacant Property Toolbox contains strategies and resources to help all Detroit communities affected by vacant properties.  The Toolbox Executive Summary provides for a highlight of these strategies and resources.  The Quick Reference Guide provides commonly used telephone numbers to keep neighborhoods strong and safe.
