This week, Donna and Orlando sat down with Maurice Weeks of Detroit City Appointments Project (DCAP)  to discuss their collaborative effort to scout, vet, and recommend effective and diverse candidates for service in Detroit's city government.

The Detroit City Appointments Project is working to find candidates who are committed to the public good. The project works with organizations from around the city, state and country, to cultivate a robust list of candidates for over 100 mayor appointed or mayor nominated positions. Additionally, DCAP works to inform agendas for key agencies, leveraging the power of organized people throughout the city.
