Resources, Reflections, & Tools
The Lutheran Office for Public Policy in Wisconsin works to provide the tools, resources, and information to be an active advocate in your community. We also seek to provide the theological reflection and grounding to help you along you faith-based advocacy journey. We do this in the following ways:
