Friday on Lake Effect: Project Milwaukee, NCAA Department of Defense Concussion Research, Tiny House

Friday on Lake Effect:

Today on the show, our Project Milwaukee series on the high rate of incarceration among black men in Milwaukee is now focusing on solutions – and two local women who have very personal ties to the system offer their ideas. Then, the Medical College of Wisconsin is one of three institutions participating in a joint NCAA Department of Defense concussion research initiative. A woman downsizes her life into an 84 square foot house, and a quilting program at Taycheedah women’s prison in Fond du Lac offers the inmates more than sewing skills.
