Organizations to Improve Access to Mental Health Care
Black communities in Detroit are facing increasing rates of anxiety and depression – yet have disproportionately fewer ways to access mental health care and services due to racial and ethnic disparities driven by social determinants of health.
A group of eight philanthropic partners in the city are seeking to make a difference by targeting funding to Black-led community-based organizations through an innovative pilot program.
This pilot program is targeting funding to seven Detroit-based, Black-led, community-based organizations and the Yunion is one of those organizations.
This grant and initiative is helping the Yunion to support students at highest risk of interacting with the juvenile justice system with individualized case management to build them a care plan.

Emotional Stability Training
I’m so thankful that I’ve studied many martial arts because I am able to maintain social distance, while still empowering the recruits with our Emotional Stability Training.
First Day of Training
This was the first day of training for these high school recruits!
Exhaust Fans Installed
I framed and mounted the exhaust fans today. With two of these in our 2,900 sft training area, we now have enough ventilation to restart classes safely indoors when weather does not permit us to do so outdoors.
Making custom mounts for the exhaust fans
I needed to make custom mounts for the exhaust fans I’m installing tomorrow in our training area.
Be encouraged to change the way we view progress

Self Esteem
When young people have high self-esteem, they tend to have better peer-to-peer relationships, they bounce back from disappointment more quickly, and are more likely to succeed at the tasks they want to accomplish. #EncourageOurYouth #WeLoveDetroitYouth
