Housing Is a Public Health Issue...and Opportunity

This week on The Upswing, WTMJ’s Jeff Sherman welcomes Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity CEO Brian Sonderman for a conversation about one of the region’s most pressing challenges: housing. Sonderman explains why housing is fundamentally a public health issue and discusses the collaborative efforts among nonprofits, businesses, developers, and government to expand homeownership opportunities in Milwaukee. He also shares his unique journey from CPA to minister to nonprofit leader, along with insights into Habitat’s work helping families achieve the dream of homeownership. The episode also highlights Habitat’s longstanding partnership with the Milwaukee Brewers, volunteer opportunities throughout the community, and how supporting Habitat ReStores helps local families in need. 🎙️ The Upswing is presented by Horicon Bank.
