Freedom House

Detroit, MI

    • Mission

    Freedom House Detroit is a temporary home for indigent survivors of persecution from around the world who are seeking asylum in the United States and Canada. Our mission is to uphold a fundamental American principle, one inscribed on the base of the Statue of Liberty, providing safety for those "yearning to breathe free." Guided by our belief that all persons deserve to live free from oppression and to be treated with justice, compassion and dignity, we offer a continuum of care and services to our residents as well as to other refugees in need. We advocate for systemic change that more fully recognizes the rights of asylum seekers.

    About Us

    We provide housing, food, social services, legal services, and classes to asylum seekers to facilitate their adjustment to a new life in either Canada or the United States.

    Cause Areas Include

    • Housing & Homelessness
    • Human Rights & Civil Liberties
    • Immigrants or Refugees
    • International Relations
    • Legal Assistance
