The NNS team strives to give Milwaukee the newsroom it deserves.

I hope you are having the best weekend.

As we continue to celebrate independence, I wanted to also celebrate NNS. For 15 years, we have served Milwaukee with rigorous reporting that centers the community and the issues residents care about.

We are truly independent. As a nonprofit newsroom, we answer to you. And when you don’t like something we publish, you are not afraid to tell us about it, often in person. We live here. And we love Milwaukee. Our goal is to be your daily destination for vital information – and inspiration–that sparks civic conversations.

We offer our services for free so that everyone, regardless of income, has access to trustworthy reporting that digs into the issues.

Happy reading, and, as always, proceed until apprehended.
