The Street Angels, a Milwaukee-based homeless outreach group, are working around the clock to help meet the needs in this city as cooler temperatures approach. "The number of people that we are connecting with has increased over 10% in the last year and I think that has a lot to do with the emergency hotel programs closing and the eviction moratorium being over. We were seeing over 200 people every single night throughout the summer and our supplies are low," said Eva Welch, Co-Executive Director of Street Angels. Every Friday throughout October the organization is collecting socks, an essential item this winter.
