9to5 Milwaukee
9to5’s work in Milwaukee has been instrumental in policy changes on issues affecting low-wage women for over two decades. We are a grassroots membership organization made up of low-income women, women transitioning from welfare to work, and women who have experienced discrimination or harassment on the job.
