Brilliant Detroit Seeks Residents for Advisory Team

Brilliant Detroit Morningside is nestled inside the Morningside community at 5048 Balfour St. (just north of E. Warren). We are a community hub which welcomes all families that have children 0-8 years old. Our programming is for the entire family to grow and become their own definition of success, especially in the area of literacy. Because community involvement is so vital to the success of what we do, we are reaching out to community members, leaders and business owners to possibly become part of our advisory team. A potential Advisory Team Member needs to agree to the following:

OVERVIEW/PURPOSE:
The Brilliant Detroit (“BD”) House Advisory Team (“Advisory Team”) is a group of volunteers (“Champions”) dedicated to advancing Kid and Family Success in neighborhoods. The Advisory Team will provide leadership in relation to community views so that they are recognized and reflected in service delivery, and in general, Champions will advocate on behalf of the community.

EXPECTATIONS:
The Advisory Team will help advance kid success neighborhoods by providing suggestions, advice, and recommendations as well as championing the mission and related projects. This team will offer non-binding strategic advice or recommendations. Though it has no executive authority, the Advisory Team provides a central focus for all strategies and mechanisms for participation in BD activities. Champions may choose to focus on one or more of the following or other topics:

• Quality assurance for programming

• Input from community

• Outreach for new or consistent participants

• Events

If this sounds like a mission that you would like to be part of, please reach out to Regina Williams at (313) 528-7217 or rwilliams@brilliantdetroit.org. Thank you, and we hope to hear from you soon!
