& Education
To sustainably solve a problem, we must understand it.
Awareness
Street Angels is dedicated to raising awareness about the complex issues surrounding homelessness and advocating for policy changes to address these challenges.
Through our efforts, we have successfully connected over 800 individuals to stable housing resources.
Advocacy
We have played a pivotal role in creating county-level resolutions that provide support for our unhoused neighbors in Milwaukee, including “Code Blue” and “Right to Shelter,” meant to protect people from brutal winter weather.
File #20-670
A resolution declaring a Right to Shelter in Milwaukee County so any person experiencing chronic homelessness or lacking access to safe housing will have accessible shelter; creating two additional Community Intervention Specialist positions, and accepting Emergency Solutions Grant funds from the City of Milwaukee to offset the cost for two years.
Education
Street Angels is committed to raising awareness and providing education on homelessness within our community. Our presentation, “Getting to Know Your Neighbors Without Homes,” and other workshops provide valuable insights into the experiences and challenges faced by individuals experiencing homelessness.
