World Homeless Day: DRMM’s Call to Action
This year, our President and CEO, Dr. Chad Audi, took that call seriously. Speaking to Fox 2 Detroit’s The Noon at Noon, Dr. Audi shared a powerful message for Detroit, the nation, and generations to come — talking to our legacies about homelessness, dignity, and the responsibility we share.

Key Points from Dr. Audi’s Call to Action:
-
Change policies to ensure funding for programs that help people find and sustain affordable housing is not cut.
-
End the criminalization of those who find themselves without a home.
-
Recognize homelessness as a human issue that requires compassion, sustainable solutions, and community collaboration.
“Homelessness is not a statistic — it’s a person’s story. And we must change the way we respond.” — Dr. Chad Audi
How DRMM Is Responding:
Since 1909, Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries has served the homeless with dignity and care — offering shelter, meals, recovery programs, and supportive housing solutions that address the root causes of homelessness.
