Community Advocates’ Aging with Stability initiative aims to meet a growing need in our community—but it’s deeply personal, too. Like many human services providers, we’ve seen a troubling increase in the number of older adults experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity in Milwaukee County. Instead of enjoying their senior years with peace and dignity, more elders are living in encampments or cars, experiencing street homelessness, or struggling to keep up with housing costs amid an ongoing cost-of-living crisis.

Since 2018, Molly Maid of East Metro Milwaukee and Racine and the Ms. Molly Foundation have partnered with the Milwaukee Women's Center to help provide safety, healing, and hope for survivors and families experiencing domestic violence in our community.
