Collaborative Funding Expands Support for Youth in Detroit’s Cody Rouge Neighborhood

The Cody Rouge Initiative (CRI), a public-private collaboration to support a resident-led vision to ensure Detroit’s Cody Rouge neighborhood is a place where children and families thrive, is providing $1.4 million in funding over two years to City Year Detroit. The education-focused nonprofit brings AmeriCorps volunteers into schools to build strong “near-peer” relationships with students.

This latest grant from the CRI will enable City Year Detroit to introduce AmeriCorps members to Cody High School, where they will provide one-on-one and small-group tutoring to students and organize school
