The Winter 2024 Community Advocacy Clinic (CAC) will focus on local government transparency and access.   Community organizations and members in Detroit often face challenges in engaging in local government.  This stems from obstacles such as inability to obtain what should be public information from the City of Detroit or limits on the ability to provide public comment.  Students in the CAC will confront these issues, learn about applicable state and local laws, and propose projects that will address the underlying issues.   Projects might include: a seminar to explain FOIA and how to complete forms and follow-up on submitted FOIA requests or a training on effective public comment models. Questions?
