What is Forum Friday? In this webinar format, we discuss a timely research topic and invite notable guests and Forum members to join the conversation. We hope these events give Forum supporters and members from every corner of our state an opportunity to stay informed and connected on our state's most pressing public policy issues.

A Mixed Picture: Trends for Wisconsin’s Efforts to Address Homelessness

Virtual event | December 11, 2026 | 12:30 – 1:30 p.m.

Join us on December 11 for the latest installment of our virtual event series, Forum Friday! It will focus on Wisconsin’s efforts to address homelessness.

An August report from the Forum found a trend of slow growth in Wisconsin’s homeless population since 2021, following a period of decline in prior years. Wisconsin continues to report lower rates of homelessness than both its regional peers and the nation. But those working to combat homelessness in our state are responding to growing needs while also facing significant uncertainty with the federal policy and funding on which these programs rely.

Our Forum Friday panelists will include

Michael Basford
Director
Wisconsin Interagency Council
on Homelessness

Kristine Nadolski
State Education for Homeless
Children and Youth Coordinator
Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

Wendy Weckler
Continuum of Care Director
United Way of Greater Milwaukee
& Waukesha County


As always, we’ll conclude with a Q&A session for registered participants. Registration is free, but required for this event.
