Matrix Human Services Impact Report 2021

 

Brad Coulter     

President & CEO        

2021

2021 was a year of success and challenges. COVID continued to affect in person operations, but our staff had already learned how to adapt and remain resourceful. Being on the other side of the learning curve allowed our clients and community to continue receiving services they need while keeping our staff and clients safe. By being strategic about our sourcing decisions, we were also able to spend almost $1 million dollars buying services from Black and Hispanic owned business in Detroit. These dollars go directly into the community supporting jobs and local businesses.

This Impact Report details the myriad of programs and success stories that Matrix had in 2021. From making sure pre-school children have access to curriculum-based education and nutrition, helping families overcome barriers like housing and food scarcity, counseling of teens and people living with HIV and much more, Matrix is able to step in and provide a hand-up when people are at a turning point and need assistance to get back on track.

During 2021, Matrix was able upgrade many of its 20 locations around Detroit. A complete renovation of the Matrix Center entrance and lobby was completed which will allow for better flow of people in and out of the building plus provide a more welcoming environment. In addition, lifts were installed to make the building ADA compliant. New playgrounds, awnings, and signage are being installed at our Head Start centers along with a refresh of the building interiors through painting, flooring, and other upgrades. In order to truly inspire people to achieve, our buildings need to provide inspiration for change.

We could not have overcome the challenges faced over the past two years without our funders and the generous donations from our individual and corporate supporters. They make our impact possible, and we are truly grateful for the ongoing support.

Since 1906 Matrix has given people hope for a better life. We help provide a path to success and coordinate resources so individuals can strive for a better life for themselves and their families. For 116 years running, the passion to serve still remains.
