Madison started the CARES, or Community Alternative Response Emergency Services, program in 2021 after a wave of protests and a series of deaths. Paramedics and crisis workers now respond to non-violent 911 calls in Madison, rather than police officers. Two years and thousands of calls later, the program seems to be working. But it's not staffed on nights and weekends and it's only available within city limits. It could become 24/7 and serve the Madison suburbs under proposals before the Madison City Council and the Dane County Board.  Host Bianca Martin caught up with Madison Assistant Fire Chief Ché Stedman to learn how it all works.  Wanna talk to us about an episode?

The Dane County Board is poised to vote this Thursday on whether to spend an additional $13 million on renovating the oldest part of Dane County Jail. The latest vote comes after the Board has already earmarked $166 million for the project so far - and after the Board already approved a plan for a smaller, cheaper facility. County Executive Joe Parisi vetoed that plan, and is pushing for a larger version of the plan that Sheriff Kalvin Barrett favors.  But Dane County Supervisor Dana Pellebon says not so fast. And she might have the votes on her side. Also:

The Dane County Board rejected a resolution to put an additional $13.5 million for the consolidated jail project to referendum in April, opting instead to wait until a more complete cost estimate comes in March and then decide whether to spend more or cut back on the project. Supervisor Dana Pellebon joins the show today to talk about that vote, the Black Caucus perspective and what comes next.

Two committees of the Dane County Board have recommended denial of a plan from the Black Caucus to keep the jail project under budget. On the podcast today, we have the breakdown of that proposal and next steps.

On the pod today: an update on the case of a Appleton man in jail for an assualt on a Black woman, a series of proposals from the Dane County Board's Black Caucus to reduce disparities in the jail, and Black Restaurant Week coming soon!
