Capacity Building Committee:

The Capacity Building Committee meets quarterly to review, discuss and make recommendations regarding CDAD’s capacity building priorities. Committee members play a key role in helping to identify the capacity building needs and gaps that exist in Detroit’s community development sector as well as generate solution-based suggestions to address those needs. The committee serves as a sounding board on relevant emerging issues. Additionally, committee members aid in developing inclusive, needs-based strategies that will benefit the diverse range of community development groups in Detroit.
