Interfaith group based in Detroit, Michigan, United States
Metropolitan Organizing Strategy Enabling Strength (MOSES) is an interfaith group based in Detroit, Michigan, United States.
MOSES was founded in 1997.[1]
As of 2002, 130 congregations were participating in it.[2]
MOSES notably campaigned for improvements to public transportation.[2][3]
It issued a lawsuit against the Detroit Department of Transportation in 2005 in protest against the lack of lifts for wheelchair users to access buses.[4]
Other subjects on which it has campaigned include healthcare,[5]
civil rights of immigrants,[6][7]
retail quality[8]
and public safety. From 2001 it campaigned for land banks to take control of abandoned property, leading to the establishment of the Detroit land bank authority in 2008.[9]
MOSES is currently based in the Michigan Building in Downtown Detroit.
