Goodwill of Greater Detroit operates in the professional training and coaching space, aiming to help individuals achieve independence through personal development and work. It serves Metro Detroit residents, including returning citizens, youth, and those who have been chronically under or unemployed, as well as people living with mental illness or intellectual/developmental disability. The organization runs two wholly owned subsidiaries—Goodwill Integrated Solutions, a Tier 1 automotive assembly and kitting business, and Goodwill’s Green Works, which handles asset recovery and industrial recycling. Profits from these ventures are reinvested in the mission to expand long-term employment opportunities and provide transitional on-the-job experience for individuals facing significant employment challenges. Founded in 1921 and based in Detroit, the organization operates with a mid-sized footprint in the regional professional development ecosystem, and in 2022 it partnered with the Downtown Detroit Partnership to recruit and train Clean Downtown Ambassadors for the Detroit Grand Prix.
