A platform to amplify, unify, and aggregate people, organizations, and information, as well as disseminate communication and steps to end the incarceration problem in Wisconsin.
The mission of the Wisconsin Decarceration Platform is to foster collective action for positive change in the lives of those impacted by the justice system. We are a self-organizing anti-mass incarceration community, providing a digital safe place for service providers, advocacy organizations, and affected individuals to connect with each-other and those in need of post-conviction services. We strive for equity by promoting a culture of learning, agency, and human dignity to encourage collaboration and transformation.

project_name: NexTo
image: NexTo.jpg
link: https://nex-to.com/
---

NexTo was created to support projects that provide community members and essential workers with PPE and other supplies during the COVID-19 pandemic. Community organizations spend a significant amount of time and energy planning, organizing, and executing efforts to respond to time-sensitive community needs and crisis situations. This work of the social sector is critically important, but unnecessarily inefficient. NexTo helps the social sector become more rapid and efficient than traditional direct service models, and enables organizations to make a positive impact at scale.

project_name: MKE Open Data Portal
image: dpw.jpg
link: https://digitalpublicworks.com/p/city-of-milwaukee-open-data-portal-improvement-project
---

The City has an open data portal, however, usage is fairly low and visits are generally made by a fairly homogeneous group of users (those with a certain level of technical prowess and ready-made ideas for how local open data may be useful to them). The opportunity is to increase the accessibility, responsiveness, and broad appeal for this potentially invaluable tool.
