At Spot Lite Detroit, we are committed to being a consensual, harm-reduction-centered space where our community feels safe, respected, and empowered.
In response to community feedback and our own responsibility to continuously improve, we are strengthening policies, staff training, and safety practices. Creating safer spaces is ongoing work, and we are committed to transparency, accountability, and community-informed action.
We are building intentional partnerships with local safety and advocacy organizations to stay informed and ensure our community has access to trusted support.
