Detroit faces significant challenges with housing and home repairs. Data from the University of Michigan shows that over 37,000 Detroit residents live in inadequate housing conditions due to unaffordable repairs. On Aug. 20, BridgeDetroit will host its latest Community Conversation focusing on housing and home repairs. The event aims to shed light on the pressing needs of Detroit residents and explore available resources to address these issues. BridgeDetroit Managing Editor Christine Ferretti shares a preview of the event with host Stephen Henderson. She also discusses a new City of Detroit initiative aimed at improving home accessibility for residents with disabilities.
