Recent results from a multiwavelength survey of spatially resolved outflows in nearby active galaxies are presented. Optical Fabry-Perot and long-slit spectroscopic data are combined with VLA and ROSAT images, when available, to probe the warm, relativistic and hot gas components involved in the outflow. The emphasis is put on objects which harbor wide-angle galactic-scale outflows but also show evidence at radio or optical wavelengths for collimated jet-like phenomena (e.g., Circinus, NGC 4388, and to a lesser extent NGC 2992). Our results are compared with the predictions from published jet-driven thermal wind models.
