Описание: “We’re not just rendering services — we’re partnering with young people to drive systemic change.” Recorded live at the 2026 Detroit Policy Conference, this Detroit is Different conversation captures the heartbeat of a new era of Detroit leadership through an intimate and powerful dialogue between host Erika Monaé Lewis and Courtney Smith, Founder & CEO of Detroit Phoenix Center. Courtney breaks down what it means to lead with dignity, accountability, and proximity in a moment when Detroit is witnessing historic political shifts and community-centered governance. She reflects on working alongside Mayor Mary Sheffield, the responsibility of leadership in policy spaces, and why organizations rooted on the front lines must help shape solutions — not just respond to crises. From youth sitting at national policy tables to Detroit Phoenix Center’s groundbreaking mobile youth center, Courtney shares how youth are not “recipients of aid” but “agents of change.” This episode is a call to action, grounding Detroit’s future in shared power, lived experience, and bold community vision.
