Uncertainty about the process is one of the biggest reasons people hesitate to seek support. Knowing exactly what to expect can take away that hesitation.

You are in control when you connect with a local resource navigator. The entire process is built around your privacy and choice:

You stay anonymous: You never have to share your name, your history, or any identifying details to get help.

Zero judgment/Zero pressure: Navigators are not here to evaluate your choices or force you down a specific path. They are here to listen and help you find options.

You set the goals: There are no mandatory checklists or requirements. Whether you need local counseling, a safe place to sleep, or a location to pick up free harm reduction supplies, you only share what you want to.

A direct pathway: Instead of trying to figure out the system on your own, you get clear, direct options tailored to your life today.

If you want to explore your options, IMPACT 211 Wisconsin provides real-time navigation for crisis support, housing assistance, and local service referrals. You can also connect with the Wisconsin Addiction Recovery Helpline for free at 211 or 877-947-2211 for 24/7 care coordination.

Check out Devin Blake's latest article on Milwaukee's growing surveillance infrastructure.

Milwaukee Turners Executive Director Emilio De Torre said there is no indication of the safety benefits of systemwide surveillance. “It's just rhetoric without any data to back it up,” De Torre said. “The public is only just learning how Flock and ALPRs are part of a much larger, more insidious web of nonstop surveillance,” De Torre said. “They can too readily determine where any of us are going at all times and what we’re doing.”

The Milwaukee Turners oppose the deployment of military tactics against local residents. Surveillance strategies used in warfare are not suitable for Milwaukee. We call on Milwaukee to prohibit Flock cameras and all surveillance technologies that violate Americans' rights.

Listen as our Confronting Mass Incarceration Coordinator Nickolas X. Doherty explains the links between Flock, Surveillance, and Colonialism.
