Radio host and entrepreneur Angela Yee made waves last in Detroit’s real estate market when she acquired a 30-unit building in the vibrant Midtown area.
In a visionary move, Yee plans to dedicate one-third of the building to provide housing for formerly incarcerated women, addressing a critical need for post-incarceration support.
Yee, known for her influential role in radio and media, is committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for women who have faced the challenges of reintegration into society.
“It’s about providing a safe haven for those who truly need it,” Yee stated. “The battle for adequate housing post-incarceration is a struggle many face.”
Partnering with Yee on this transformative project are @TheJasmineBrand and Dr. Topeka K. Sam, founder of Ladies of Hope Ministries, a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering women after incarceration.
Their collaboration aims to offer more than just housing; it’s about fostering an environment where women can rebuild their lives with dignity and support.
Yee’s initiative highlights her dedication to using her platform and success to make a meaningful impact.
“If I’ve managed to carve my own path of success and financial stability, it’s only right I use my platform to uplift others,” Yee remarked.
The project is poised to not only provide essential housing but also to inspire broader community engagement and support for formerly incarcerated individuals.
