This will prepare you to help knock doors in the lead up to the November election - a critical activity for getting Democrats elected!
“Welcoming the Stranger - a Faith Based Response to Immigration" Community Forum
How do faith practices view and understand immigration and welcoming people to our community - particularly those who might look differently than the status quo, speak different languages, or uphold different cultural practices? With a rise of effort to discourage certain immigrants from settling in western Wisconsin, this free community forum will focus on how faith practices inform inclusive efforts to "welcome the stranger" and build a healthy, vibrant future for all people in Dunn County - those that practice a faith and those that do not. All are welcome!
