Madison— A member of a powerful conservation foundation, Milwaukee Archbishop Jerome Listeki and a prominent Latino commentator have all been named to Gov. Scott Walker’s new commission on the family.

The Future of the Family Commission will present recommendations to the Republican governor in December. Walker said he hoped the 10-person panel would find ways to help successful families as well as those facing challenges or breakdowns.

“If we have strong families, there’s almost no challenge we can’t face,” Walker said.

The commission’s chairwoman is Department of Children and Families secretary Eloise Anderson, who has held that post since 2011. Walker appointed Anderson to the post and she in turn appointed the other members.
