Adoption is the buzzword for this week’s NEWisco Weekend.

We talk about adoption of all types, from our Commentary from Amanda Nimmer on chosen family to Pete Schwaba’s Classic Cinema pick of the week, a comedy about adopting a baby.

And the Opening feature from Teri Barr features a man who has adopted an entire community in Jamaica.

We have feature stories: From Isabella Nieto on the ACLU taking on Marathon County's adoption of an ICE program. From Jo Ann Krulatz on adopting winter weather techniques and tricks. From Connie Fellman on the Ladies of Lambeau who work with Foster kids in NEWisco. And Melissa Kaye brings us an Awesome story about a pet pigeon.
