About us
Freedom House Detroit (FHD) exists to help survivors of persecution, torture, upheaval, and natural disaster secure humanitarian protection and a path to independence and safety. By definition, our clients cannot return home. But the perilous and heart-wrenching decision to leave behind their homes, families, and livelihoods brings a new set of life-threatening problems. In the US, they are cut off from the support of family and friends, ineligible for mainstream benefits and employment, and isolated by their dissimilar languages and cultures. FHD provides a safe home, a community environment, and a spectrum of critical and integrated services delivered with a trauma-informed approach. Clients receive life-affirming basic needs (safe housing, water, food, clothing, and hygiene items), legal aid to assist them with their case for protection; medical and mental health care access to address trauma from their experiences and current health needs; employment coaching delivered through an acculturative lens; and housing literacy to help them transition to independent housing.

Over a year ago, Mamba went on the TV show Chopped, won, and donated his prize money back to create a new kitchen for Freedom House Detroit and started a movement to transform our kitchen. Together the community has raised over $1 million to renovate the kitchen at Freedom House Detroit! We cannot thank Mamba and the community enough for this. As our community has rapidly grown over the last year, we have expanded that goal to 1.7 Million to meet the growing needs of the house and the many more mouths we are feeding. Share the word and join us in making Detroit a place where everyone belongs!
