Safe & Sound is critical to Milwaukee’s efforts to create safe and secure neighborhoods in which to operate businesses and raise families. Our strategy is to mobilize the resources of neighborhoods including law enforcement, prosecution, youth-serving organizations, residents, businesses, elected officials and clergy; and focus them all on the mission of reducing crime and rebuilding our neighborhoods.

Our collaborative efforts in 2008 led to a safer Milwaukee, more engaged residents, and youth committed to changing their neighborhoods while developing their skills and opportunities. As we work to strengthen our partnerships, we hope that you will join in our mission, share your ideas, and continue to provide the financial support that brings about change.
