Description
The City of Detroit is currently seeking a Detroit Bank On & Asset Protection Coordinator -Administrative Special Services Staff II-Exempt (ARPA) for the Housing and Revitalization Department (HRD) department, Home Repair and Neighborhood Services Division.
Bank On
Cities across the country have joined the national Bank On movement through local coalitions to connect residents to safe, affordable bank accounts and products. The Cities for Financial Empowerment Fund (CFE Fund) announced that there are now more than 100 bank and credit union accounts nationally certified as meeting the Bank On National Account Standards. Banks and credit unions offering certified accounts comprise over 60% of the U.S. deposit market share, and 53% of all US bank branches offer a certified account; more than 17.4 million Bank On certified accounts have been opened to date.
Asset Protection Program (Free Wills and Estate Program)
In 2022, Councilmember Scott Benson created the Wealth Generation Task Force with the goal of building a strong middle class in Detroit. Through the committee meetings, it became clear there was a need to ensure Detroit residents have clear title/deed to their homes. Individuals who live in generational homes that lack clear title face issues including access to home insurance, home repair programs, or lines of credit. The City wants to help residents preserve equity in their homes and ensure proper transfer of title, which in turn will bolster neighborhoods and the City generally.
