Goodwill Industries of Greater Detroit provides people with opportunities to become independent, self-supporting citizens through training, work experience and employment in the community. In 2007, the organization successfully put nearly 1,500 residents to work in the counties of Wayne, Oakland and Macomb and provided nearly 14,000 individuals with employment and training services.
