Human Development Commission is a initiative to re-discover the power of being human.

Michigan Disability Rights Coalition's mission is to cultivate disability pride and strengthen the disability movement by recognizing disability as a natural and beautiful part of human diversity while collaborating to dismantle all forms of oppression. We support groups of people with disabilities who want to change the community in which they live through training, supported planning, and assistance with organizational development.

Ele’s Place is a nonprofit, community-based organization with a mission to create awareness of and support for grieving children and families. Through peer support group programs, Ele’s Place helps children to cope with the death or life-threatening illness of a parent, sibling or other close family member or friend. Before coming to Ele’s Place, many grieving children feel alone and keep their feelings inside, not wanting to burden their parents or other family members. Often friends don’t seem to understand if they haven’t had a similar experience. But each week at Ele’s Place, hundreds of grieving children find a warm and welcoming place to meet new friends who really understand how they feel. Some children learn how to cope with a family member’s illness, while others begin to heal after the death of a loved one.
