Pillars of Investment

Detroit LISC invests its expertise, technical assistance, management and program consulting, training, public policy support, and funding to implement initiatives supporting the advancement of our Sustainable Communities agenda.   

Our three pillars of investment, encompassing all five core goals of our Sustainable Communities agenda, are:  Land Use and Physical Development, Economic Development, and Community Safety and Healthy Environments.  We also prioritize investments in the community development delivery system to keep organizations sustainable and strong. 

Detroit LISC has taken a leadership role in working with key public and private stakeholders to shape and improve the policy environment and systems needed for positive community development in the long term in Detroit. The combination of these investments and support is creating a synergy that serves to align our strategic priorities and create positive change in neighborhoods throughout Detroit.
