DETROIT GROUP HELPS YOUTH SING AND MARCHES FOR FATHERS
Detroit, MI – Dozens of Detroiters and several local groups have teamed up to form The Better Detroit Youth Movement (BDYM), a non-profit coalition dedicated to improving the quality of life and learning for Detroit’s young generation.
“There exists a real need to establish higher levels of communication, cooperation and collaboration among youth and community service providers, and our city’s resources,” says Reuben Gordon, BDYM executive director, “so that we better mobilize our momentum, and maximize outcomes for Detroit children and teens.”
Comprised of concerned citizens, businesses and groups such as Encourage Me, I’m Young, ARISE Detroit, www.jaysfades.com, BlightBusters, www.improvemichigan.org and www.tellusdetroit.com and UniTee Design. According to Gordon, the BDYM is creating a comprehensive resource guide of Detroit area community and youth service providers, “so our kids know how and where to get help whenever they need it.”
The BDYM organized a youth art party in May, and has also supported several recent youth events including a youth march and The Stand Up For Kids street fair. The group is heading up The Detroit 2008 Million Father March on August 28th, to encourage fathers to take their child or children to the first day of school. BDYM co-director Harlan Bivens proclaims this major initiative will be used to increase community, parent and student involvement throughout the school year. “We want to see more “A’s” on more reports cards the last day of school, says Bivens.”
Several teachers are key contributors to the BDYM, including Susan Storey, a drama instructor at Cody High for the past 20 plus years. “I love the energy and passion of these folks, and how they just things done,” adds Storey, who is helping to organize The Motor City YouthFest, a showcase of Detroit’s young talent, that is being held on August 2, as a part of ARISE Detroit’s Neighborhood Day. “Based on what I’ve seen and heard at the auditions,” smiles Storey, “we’re still Motown big time.”
The BDYM hosts weekly meetings every Wednesday at 7:30 p.m., at Wayne Community College’s main campus on Fort Street. “We’re rounding up a lot of good souls who believe in the promise and progress of our city’s children. And if we continue to bring more positive people to the table,” Gordon concludes, “we will create a better and brighter future for Detroit.”
For more information, please call 313-516-8384 or visit www.betterdetroityouth.org.
Please think about ways you can contribute.
Thanks ever so much.
Reuben

Like your site; very cool . . .
And speaking of cool, your last name is the epitomy of "cool beans" . . .
I'm jealous !
As founder of The Better Detroit Youth Movement, I’m intent on establishing higher levels of communication, cooperation and collaboration among youth and community service providers, and our city’s resources, to mobilize action and maximize better outcomes for Detroit children and teens.
