About the new Woodale Crossing
Woodale Crossing seeks to address the community need for supportive services through the integration of affordable housing, social services, supportive programming, and health-related and personal care services for some of the most vulnerable residents of Milwaukee County.
About JFS, Inc. and JFS Housing
In 2009, Jewish Family Services, Inc. (JFS) took action to address the urgent community need for safe and affordable housing options for individuals with disabilities, seniors and low-income families. This vision led to the formation of JFS Housing, Inc. (JFSHI) a subsidiary of Jewish Family Services, Inc. and the development of Deerwood Crossing Senior Residences, Bradley Crossing and The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Residences at Bradley Crossing Supportive Housing Community, a model integrated residential setting located at the intersection of Sherman Boulevard and Bradley Road in the village of Brown Deer, WI.
JFS Housing develops safe, affordable housing for low- and moderate-income individuals, families, seniors and people with disabilities.
Our commitment to partnerships, innovative programming, and excellence, ensures we can make a positive impact in the lives of individuals and families across our communities.
