Developing long-lasting relationships is at the core of the support we provide to help children through adulthood maintain a path of long-term success. Whether for quality childhood education, meaningful employment or mental health support, every person who comes through Development Centers’ doors is treated holistically to meet that individual’s unique needs.
Our staff of hundreds of caring professionals serves more than 12,000 adults and children each year with more than two dozen behavioral health & prevention programs, in addition to offering a comprehensive array of varied housing placement services, employment readiness training, early childhood education, and much more.
Each year Development Centers surveys the people we serve to ensure they are receiving the level of support they need and use their feedback to continually improve our programs. In 2021, survey respondents stated that their overall level of satisfaction (Question 1: reporting “very satisfied” or “satisfied”) was approximately 88 percent. As an agency, we have exceeded the Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network (DWIHN) standard of 80 percent.
