"It’s no coincidence that the Drug Policy Alliance chose to bring the International Drug Policy Reform Conference to Detroit. This city has always been a place where people turn obstacles into movements.
By investing in community care and supporting local organizations already leading this work, Detroit can model public safety rooted in trusted relationships, health and dignity. Safety begins when we take care of one another. It grows in community gardens, block clubs and schoolyards, and is sustained by neighbors who refuse to give up on one another.
That’s the Detroit we know — resilient, resourceful and ready to show leaders from across the world what community-driven health and people-centered drug policy reform look like."

McGregor Fund Founders
More than 100 years ago, the McGregors devoted their lives to community service – Tracy as an agency founder and social entrepreneur ending homelessness and unemployment for Detroit men, and Katherine as the founder and benefactor of an orphanage in Highland Park. Their proximity to people experiencing hardship and trauma informed their charitable giving and Tracy’s role as a civic leader.
