The Rocket Community Challenge Continues! Your gift can make the difference a family needs to stay housed.

A Detroit mother of three came to UCHC after months without heat in unsafe housing. Then, before her legal move-out date, her landlord changed the locks and threw nearly everything her family owned, including her children’s Christmas gifts, onto the curb.

Our legal team fought back. After nearly a year of advocacy, the court awarded our client $25,000 in damages.

This is what housing justice looks like: standing with Detroit families, protecting their rights and holding landlords accountable when those rights are violated.

During the Rocket Community Challenge, your support helps make victories like this possible. Together, we can ensure more Detroit families have an advocate in their corner when they need one most.

Prevention costs less. Crisis costs more.

Early support keeps families housed. Late support means displacement and higher costs.

We need to act sooner; and we can’t do it without your help.

Too many families don’t receive support until they’ve already reached a breaking point:

Crisis → Eviction → Homelessness

But that cycle isn’t inevitable. With early support, families can stay safely in their homes.

Right now, funding priorities are shifting, and prevention efforts are at risk.
