What Is It?

Hope Not Handcuffs is an initiative started by Families Against Narcotics (FAN), aimed at bringing law enforcement and community organizations together in an effort to find viable treatment options for individuals seeking help to reduce dependency with heroin, prescription drugs, and alcohol. It is a solution.

How It Works

A person struggling with any substance use disorder can come to any of the participating police agencies and ask for help. They will be greeted with support, compassion, and respect. If accepted into the program*, the individual will be guided through a brief intake process to ensure proper treatment placement.
 
If a person is uninsured or has Medicaid, we will work directly with the local Office of Substance Abuse Services for placement. If a person has private insurance, we will provide them with treatment options covered by their plan. Regardless, our team will work to get them into treatment as soon as possible. We have more than 600 volunteer Angels, and one of them will help with paperwork and provide compassionate support until a treatment option is found.

​

If you are interested in becoming a member of the Hope Not Handcuffs team, please complete the following information and we will be in contact shortly.

Questions: 833-202-HOPE (4673) or kiml@familiesagainstnarcotics.org

We are always looking for small groups (3-12 volunteers) to help clean and organize New Beginnings' space and donations. Several areas are currently in need of special attention-- the art supplies for our art gallery and studio which supports artists who are unhoused or insecurely housed; the clothing donation room; and the camping and hygiene donations. The neater these spaces are kept and the more effectively sorted the donations, the better we are able to meet the needs of our friends. 

Volunteers are needed to assist with indoor and outdoor beautification projects such as clean-up, lawn maintenance, planting flowers and plants, removing drywall, painting, home maintenance, etc. 

Friends of ITNDetroit (Independence Rides) is a nonprofit public charity (IRS 501.c.3) focused on providing dignified transportation independence for seniors and vision impaired adults in the Detroit metropolitan area. Though we normally provide rides for any reason, under the current COVID-19 restrictions we continue to provide necessary rides to medical appointments, pharmacy, and grocery shopping. We also provide free rides for all COVID vaccination appointments.

The ideal applicant for this position has extra time on their hands and desires to use that time in service to seniors and vision impaired adults in Detroit area communities. This is a volunteer position, which includes a mileage reimbursement of $0.75 per occupied mile for those drivers who request it. Schedules are very flexible, allowing drivers to provide as many or as few rides as desired, based on available ride requests. Currently most ride requests are during week days, but are expected to include weekends as the COVID pandemic subsides. Most drivers will provide these rides using their own vehicles. Independence Rides provides additional insurance to cover the vehicle and all occupants.

As a Community we rely heavily on our volunteers for periodic events such as our annual resource fair, mentee activities such as moves, or small community events that we have regularly. The more people we have active in our community the more needs we can address.  

Trucks are a valuable commodity (as are those who drive them). Occasionally, we have an opportunity or need that requires the bed of a truck and we currently have little or no capability of addressing these opportunities or needs. This would only be an occasional request with no specific expectations of commitment, simply a willingness to help when possible.

As students face challenging learning environments, including the potential for part-time remote learning, the technology and supply needs in our communities are not being fully met, holding back students from their greatest levels of academic engagement and success.

Have a spare bedroom and looking to make a positive impact on your community? YOU can address youth homelessness in Washtenaw County by opening your heart and home to a young person experiencing housing instability!

Host Homes is a short-term housing support program that matches volunteer hosts in the community with a young adult (18-25 years old) who has experienced foster care. Our House participants will reside with their host family for up to six months rent free while they work on their self-identified goals, saving money, and learning independent living skills.

Host families will receive trauma-informed care training and on-going support from Our House staff. Hosts will provide basic household necessities (i.e. toilet paper, soap) and have the option of receiving a monthly stipend. The young person you are hosting will continue to work with their mentor and Our House staff to develop a case plan so they can successfully transition from your home into independent living.

Host Homes at their core are about connecting people with people and facilitating a neighbor-to-neighbor interim solution to youth homelessness. Host Homes put the "village" in "it takes a village". This community-driven, youth-centered program will play a critical role in addressing the youth homelessness for Our House participants by mobilizing community resources and caring adults to demonstrate to our youth that their community cares about them!

The Area Agency on Aging 1-B (AAA 1-B) launched the Caregiver Coaching program in Livingston and Washtenaw counties in 2020. In 2021, the program expanded into Macomb and Oakland counties in 2021. Caregiver Coaching is a free program that matches people caring for an aging or disabled loved one with a compassionate, trained volunteer who works with them one-on-one.  Depending on the caregivers' needs, volunteer coaches can be guides, sounding boards, researchers, cheerleaders, encouragers, calmer-downers, or lifter-uppers. The volunteer coaches strive to build a safe and supportive environment where they walk beside you on the caregiving journey.

The program is built around caregivers' needs. There is no minimum number of communications required and no specific structure or schedule.  Typically, you will meet with your coach over the phone once a month, but every caregiver has different needs. Some caregivers want someone to talk to regularly, while others want support in creating to-dos or sorting through resource lists. There is no right or wrong way. The coaches are here to support you. 

For more information or to volunteer for the program, call (800) 852-7795, email coaching@aaa1b.org, or visit https://aaa1b.org/caregiver-coaching/.

Hello, we are looking to get some volunteers to help us with our Pride Decides work. We have recently been given a grant that allows us to make 40,000 calls in the next two weeks! The granter has provided us with a simple and easy to use web app that allows anyone to participate from their computer.

The web app auto dials the numbers and the script is easy to view and perform. It is a simple way to get any volunteer hours that you need.

About: Pride Decides!

Since 1994, LGBT Detroit has a significant history in voter engagement. Candidate forums (Mayoral, Gubernatorial and State Congressional), voter registration drives and voter education events have largely occurred during LGBT Detroit’s annual 25 year old flagship gay, pride project Hotter Than July. As Detroit looks towards the upcoming local election cycle in the fall, LGBT Detroit continues the non-partisan comprehensive voter engagement and legislative program, Pride Decides. Piloted during the previous national election cycle, LGBT Detroit partnered with and was supported by Michigan Voices, ACLU of Michigan, Planned Parenthood of Michigan, and Black Voters Matter. In zip codes 48221 and 48235, the program made over 60,000 voter contacts in the summer and fall of 2020 to ensure voters were educated on how they could participate in the general election. The program was so successful that a note of thanks was sent to the agency from President Joe Biden for the work completed during the election cycle. In 2021 Pride Decides aims to re-engage voters in the upcoming City of Detroit local elections. Within the COVID-19 pandemic, activities for the program will be a hybrid of virtual and in person activities. Core activities include voter education, voter registration, phone banking, and the practice of ensuring voter participation in any election.
