We are very excited to welcome @waters_leah, the @DallasMorningNews and members of the Dallas City Council to #KivaEast! Kiva East showcases the work the DHOF does to develop #AffordableHousing with high-opportunity amenities like free #PreK. dallasnews.com/news/2024/04/2…
#AffordableHousing was a major theme of @MayorMikeDuggan’s #StateOfTheCity address this week. We’re very excited to see #TheDreamtoit, #TheClaire, #TheShirley, #TheCharlotte and more #DHFF investments featured in his presentation! youtu.be/EfKvl0mX13E?t=…

I couldn’t be more proud that Detroit received the maximum score on the Human Rights Campaign’s municipal Equality Index. We work everyday to ensure that our policies and practices protect and support the LGBTQ+ community.
Over the past several years, we have been very intentional about two things: 1. Bringing more good paying jobs to Detroit 2. Partnering with employers to get Detroiters as many jobs as possible. We are making that happen!
