UW-Milwaukee nursing faculty, staff and students are actively collaborating with many organizations in Milwaukee to address access to resources and disparities related to violence against Black and Brown women. In the last year, Milwaukee has witnessed an extreme increase of domestic abuse and violence since the start of 2022. Through our national funding, we have formalized our efforts through the Tracking the Truth and Sister by Choice: United by Voice grants which support collaborations, forensic care and resources to women in our community.
If you would like to get involved or need access to resources, consider one of our Milwaukee partner agencies that support survivors of domestic abuse are:
