Michigan Rehabilitation Systems (MRS)

We partner with Michigan Rehabilitation Systems to inspire and uplift individuals by providing essential skills and workforce training, supporting both youth and adults, particularly those with disabilities, to overcome obstacles and achieve their full potential.

US Fish and Wildlife Services Youth Corps

In collaboration with the US Fish and Wildlife Services, Life on Purpose Detroit presents the US Fish and Wildlife Services Youth Corps, a 650-hour program providing youth with nature education, federal government roles, and wildlife conservation skills, positioning them for federal job opportunities.

Summer Youth Program

Life on Purpose Detroit presents a dynamic Summer Youth Program with GDYT and Michigan Rehabilitation Systems at the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge, where youth gain interpersonal and social skills, learn to monetize social media, and create impactful campaigns using modern technologies like Apple Vision and Oculus, benefiting both the wildlife refuge and hospitalized children.

The need for Social Emotional Learning and Character Education is not a luxury anymore. It is a necessity. Students learn better when a learning skill is tied in with Character Development.
