Detroit Women’s Commission could shape policy alongside the next mayor

The Detroit Women's Commission is a new group in the mayor’s office.

They’re meeting monthly to discuss challenges women face in Detroit and how to improve the lives and experiences of women calling Detroit home. It’s getting started at an interesting time. Detroit could have its first woman mayor in November, a mayor that this commission would be working with.

Producer Jack Filbrandt spoke with Detroit Documenters Colleen Cirocco and Noah Kincade to learn more about Detroit's Women's Commission.
