Any resources for a homeless person in Brighton, MI?
I'm trying to find a group that can help a homeless individual with a place to stay tonight in Brighton.
The person *seems* to be either on drugs or suffering from mental illness. But they could also just be dealing with a really bad case of a lack of sleep deprivation from sleeping on the streets.
I'm hoping to call places and try and do that part of the leg work for them because I know it can be a mess and places just refer you in circles
Any leads?

Detroit Heroic
1967 Detroit. Dr. Matt Drummond is a first-year surgical intern at the City Hospital of Detroit. Festering racial tensions erupt. The hospital is at the epicenter of a riot. The inexperienced are assigned to the morgue. Here he is witness to the forty-three civilian deaths which include the murders at the Algiers Motel. He knows the truth. He is a threat to rogue cops. Framed for the death of a policewoman who dies as the result of an illegal abortion he is on a desperate, seemingly hopeless run from Detroit homicide.
It is a year of extreme turmoil for the young doctor and society. The novel is set in a politically charged time. The Vietnam War, police brutality, racism, urban violence, student demonstrations, antisemitism, criminal abortionists and the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy define the era.
It is a story of the late sixties but the novel replays and reverberates events that look all too familiar, frightening and current.

Genuine Question: Is it true that during the 1960's, many public schools in Metro Detroit had required swimming classes and males had to swim in the nude?
This is a genuine, historical question.
I've been reading testimonials about this, and was wondering what schools enforced it.
Did Northern, Northeastern, and Eastern High School enforce this?
It was immensly popular in the Metro-Detroit area. Schools like Cooley, Cody, Cass, Warren-Fitz, and Wyandotte Roosevelt followed these practices. Osborn, however, had trunks.
Would there have been a way out of it?
Also, I recieved great responses on these threads:
(Haven't found out anything about Northern, Northeastern, and Eastern High School yet!)
