Detroit Safety Team


  • About Us

    The Detroit Safety Team (DST) supports Detroiters in their ability to navigate conflict, harm, and abuse via non-punitive practices; shifting the collective understanding of accountability and personal responsibility. To transform harm, we deepen our interconnectedness and develop a shift in ownership over our safety and the safety of our community.

    We promote a culture of safety absent of police presence, offer consultations with groups and individuals regarding safety and accountability, and facilitate the creation of tools and tactics of self-reliance that work outside of the structures of the state.
