The Underground Railroad
The Underground Railroad is a powerful and essential support network composed of grassroots agencies united in their mission to uplift and assist Black survivors in Detroit on their journey to freedom and empowerment. Much like the historical Underground Railroad that led enslaved individuals to freedom, this modern network provides a lifeline of support, resources, and advocacy to those seeking to break free from the chains of trauma and oppression.
Guiding Towards Freedom and Empowerment: Just as the historical Underground Railroad provided a path to freedom, our modern network guides survivors towards freedom from trauma, oppression, and the cycle of abuse. Through unwavering support, resources, and advocacy, we illuminate the path towards healing and empowerment.
​
The Underground Railroad stands as a beacon of hope, resilience, and unity within the Black survivor community in Detroit. Together, we create a future where survivors not only heal but also thrive, forging their own path towards a life of freedom and empowerment.
