In an op-ed for Smart Cities Dive, Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) CEO Michael T. Pugh and Enterprise Community Partners CEO Shaun Donovan weigh in on how climate and community development are fundamentally part of the same whole.

Are you struggling to find your purpose? You're not alone. Many of us have been on the same journey. But the truth is, purpose can be found in many ways, including occupation, acts of service, and hobbies. If you're currently between jobs, volunteering, community service, or creative endeavors can help you find purpose. I started volunteering with Habitat for Humanity, picking up construction and local ReStore shifts, and found much enjoyment in swinging hammers and helping build houses. If construction sounds like something you'd enjoy, click on the link below to find your local Habitat for Humanity Chapter and sign up!

Understanding that here in Detroit this is the time period of the demolishing and demolition of the old in preparation for the last 7 to 5 years of the reconstruct of Detroit to be “dubbed” *New Detroit* which objective appears to be a Non-Black Majority Detroit, I would be remiss not to mention that I’m hip to the supposedly 30 year plan to achieve this nefarious goal. By My estimation & informed opinion WE should be in year 20, 21 or 22 of this “so called” 30 Year Plan.. #DCU #DetroitCitizensUnion “Established To Combat The Detroit City” 👇🏿 #BlackfaceBullshytPoliticalFigures ..Rhuben X

💸 The Strategic Growth Council voted unanimously to approve $5 million in grant funding through the new Community Resilience Centers program to support communities as they build resilience to climate change. The Council awarded Planning Grants to 11 low-income, disadvantaged, rural, unincorporated, and tribal communities across the State. The Community Resilience Centers Program Planning Grant funding will support communities in developing plans for future implementation or operation of neighborhood-level community resilience center facilities and related programming. Selected projects will address community-voiced goals of energy independence, workforce development, food security, emergency response, and tribal sovereignty. The Community Resilience Centers will work toward these community-identified priorities year-round, in addition to providing respite during climate and other emergencies. Congratulations to the Planning Grantees!
