Engaged Detroit
City-wide Microschool and Parent Advocacy Network
Detroit, MI
About
This microschool organization is ready to change the world. After living through the pandemic’s detrimental impact on Detroit families, Bernita Bradley set to work creating opportunities for black moms to home school their kids, providing coaching, access to 21st century curriculum tools like that which 2021 Yass Prize Finalist Rock by Rock created, and creating an advocacy network for parents to lessen the burden of breaking into the homeschool scene for their children. Engaged Detroit believes that thoughtful action and putting money and power into the hands of its community leads to fundamental change for those who need it most – our youth. We agree, and want to see them expand their parent-empowerment and “students-first” attitude to thousands more.
