Thank you for considering joining the Service in the City<\/a> Tutoring Program!<\/p>\n

Detroit Mercy is distinguished by our students and graduates who put their faith into action to create a more loving, just and inclusive world. Our Service in the City program is open to all current UDM students and goes above and beyond just meeting a service requirement \u2014 it asks you to grow in solidarity with your community, engage in self-reflection and learn more about our education system through the lens of our Jesuit and Mercy values.<\/p>\n

The tutoring program partners with three particular sites that offer tutoring and other ways of engaging with youth in our community. Students will be serving at La Casa Guadalupana,<\/a>\u00a0Loyola High School<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Brilliant Detroit<\/a>, where they will tutor, in person, on a weekly basis at one of these three educational organizations.<\/p>\n

Detroit Mercy students are asked to make a semester-long commitment to tutoring once a week for approximately one hour, attend at least one orientation and<\/span> participate in monthly reflection meetings (February, March, April). In these meetings we will discuss economic, racial and social justice and how that affects our education system. We will reflect on students’ own personal experiences and how our mission as a Jesuit and Mercy university informs our service and justice work.<\/p>\n

Please contact Rebekah Vires at <\/span>rvires@udmercy.edu<\/a> with any questions or concerns.<\/p>\n
