The Just Institute
New Detroit’s Just Institute is a comprehensive suite of certificated trainings and customized consulting.
With funding from the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan, New Detroit piloted a specialized Just Care® training for emergency room physicians treating patients of color with opioid use disorders. The above evaluation by Johns Hopkins showed the training had an impact. You can also read an article about the Community Foundation about our partnership here.
”This training was outstanding in incorporating small pieces of fragmented information learned in years past and forming them into a clear and cohesive picture as it applies to racial inequities, implicit bias and opioid use disorder.

Advancing Equity Through Action
Our trainings and services provide interactive pedagogical learnings and personalized action plans to provide participants tools and strategies to create racially equitable policies and practices grounded in a deep understanding of racialized systems.
New Detroit’s Leadership Series on R.A.C.E. has been such an incredible experience! Each presenter has been so knowledgeable, and each session has been very valuable. Each presenter also brought a unique teaching style and various activities to help us put our learning right to use. I feel more confident in talking about race and will continue to put all of this tremendous learning into practice. This is not only incredibly useful in my work, but also in my personal life as I continue to fight to dismantle white supremacy from all of our systems.
