Marx Layne & Company’s client, Neighborhood Service Organization (NSO), was recently featured in the Michigan Chronicle for its plans to create a new park on its Oakman Campus along the Joe Louis Greenway. The Michigan Chronicle

The proposed park is designed to support healing, recovery and community connection for individuals and families affected by substance use disorder. Plans include accessible green space, gathering areas and opportunities for remembrance, including a digital memorial honoring loved ones lost to substance use disorder. The park will also complement NSO’s expanding continuum of care by helping connect individuals to treatment and other supportive services. The Michigan Chronicle

The article also highlighted NSO’s call for Michigan’s corporate community to become founding partners in the project. President and CEO Linda Little emphasized that the park is intended to make recovery visible, create a pathway to support and provide a lasting space for healing and connection in Detroit.

This earned media placement reflects Marx Layne’s targeted approach to media relations, helping elevate NSO’s work around substance use disorder, community health and recovery while connecting its mission to a timely conversation about corporate and community investment in Detroit.
