Office of Sustainability

The Office of Sustainability (OOS) seeks to improve quality of life in Detroit by facilitating healthy, green, vibrant, accessible neighborhoods, homes, and businesses. This new office develops and implements policies and practices with City departments that embody the values of sustainability. The OOS will also serve as a centralized focal point on sustainability issues, sharing and coordinating opportunities and resources city-wide. It works to build partnerships with neighborhoods, businesses, and philanthropic and non-governmental organizations to ensure the entire community is more equitable, economically strong, and environmentally sound.
