The Center for Michigan

Can we count on you to help power our newsroom and this year’s important reporting?

Amber DeLind was recognized as one of Oakland County’s Elite 40 under 40 for her work helping spark policy changes in Michigan.

The Center seeks a dynamic organizer who has a substantial record of building and strengthening networks between and among Detroiters to help lead a new media project’s focus on issues and challenges that Detroiters identify as crucial to their information needs and desires.

The successful candidate will help build the project’s design and infrastructure, prepare for a launch, and, upon launch, serve as the day-to-day oversight and coordination of content creation, editing and distribution.

We blew away our all-time record for donations in 2019 thanks to readers who care about impactful, nonpartisan, factual Michigan news. Thank you to all those who trusted us with your time — and money.

Please support our work as we head into 2020 with a donation to Bridge. Our goal in 2019 was to be your eyes and ears on impactful legislation coming from Lansing, and our reporting on long-term subs serving as full-time teachers is informing Michigan lawmakers on how to solve this problem. There’ll be more big issues next year and your support is crucial.

Celebrate #GivingNewsDay by doubling your donation to Bridge.

Long-term subs have spiked in recent years. Paying more could help solve the issue –  and so could stopping ‘talking about teachers as if they’re idiots,’ according to a panel of experts convened by Bridge.
