While the possibilities for revitalizing Detroit are nearly endless, Write A House focused on one thing – matching writers with houses – and enlisted partners who shared that vision.

Learning just how the park was restored sparked my interest in the process of intersector collaboration, and gives me confidence that similar revitalization can occur across the country.

Some of the most dramatically successful intersector collaborations have been primarily municipal projects, revitalizing entire cities with the help of businesses and non-profits.
