We now have a snapshot of the health and well-being of Milwaukee residents. 

The Milwaukee Health Department has released its 2025 Community Health Assessment, the first since 2022 when the pandemic was still looming large as a public health concern. This new report finds that violence, drug abuse and housing all play a role in whether we can live healthy lives.  

Ali Tahler-Reed and Dominique Hyatt-Oatesof the health department join WUWM’s Katherine Kokal to look at what’s in the report and how it’ll be used.
