The Detroit Hispanic Development Corporation is a nonprofit organization based in Detroit that focuses on creating life-changing opportunities for youth and their families, with emphasis on Southwest Detroit. It pursues both individual-level change and broader community or systems change, delivering programs that foster leadership development, civic engagement, and a range of services for families, including parenting skills, housing counseling, financial literacy, mobilizing parents to improve education and reduce pollution in the community. The organization operates trauma-informed youth programs that incorporate activities such as robotics, graphic design, music, and video production, alongside efforts to support small businesses and adult education for non-traditional students. DHDC emphasizes collaboration across multiple sectors to drive long-term improvements in the Southwest Detroit region, working with other community groups, universities, corporations, schools, law enforcement, policymakers, government entities, and funders. In 2025, the organization appointed Miguel Rodriguez as Executive Director after a comprehensive national search.
