The Community Arts Partnerships (CAP) program, of the College for Creative Studies (CCS), collaborates with Detroit community organizations to create art and design education, experiences, and resources for local youth and families in support of individual and community development.

CAP receives general operating support in part from the Fred A. and Barbara M. Erb Family Foundation, Kellogg Foundation, Kresge Foundation, Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs, and many others.
