The Planning Council's staff team is available to serve the community planning, evaluation and research needs of southeastern Wisconsin. We have experience in a wide variety of fields, including substance abuse, diversity, foster care, youth development, elderly, fatherhood, teen pregnancy, disabilities and mental health. We specialize in bringing people together to identify needs and work toward solutions, mobilizing community involvement, developing and coordinating services, advocating for informed decisions by funders and policy makers, and linking people with community resources. The information we provide about what works in human services is useful for individuals, nonprofits, government agencies, businesses, foundations, policy-makers and the public at large.
