It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our Board Chair, Dr. Iris Taylor.

Dr. Taylor's thoughtful, principled leadership helped shape the vision of Detroit Promise and strengthen our commitment to expanding educational opportunities for Detroit students. A lifelong champion for Detroit, her decades of leadership and service left a lasting mark on our city and the countless lives she touched.
