 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Human trafficking has been on Wisconsin\u2019s legislative radar over the past year.\u00a0 Recently Governor Scott Walker signed a bill that includes redefining the meaning of consent for victims of human trafficking.\u00a0 More legislative efforts on trafficking will continue in the next session.<\/p>\n

Currently I am working with Amy Hartman, an ELCA diaconal minister and the national executive director of Cherish All Children<\/a>, to create a plan for working together to develop a team of ELCA members in the Northwest Synod of Wisconsin.\u00a0 These team members would be the go-to people for sharing information about human trafficking with the synod and for responding to legislative concerns.\u00a0 The two LOPPW Advisory Council members from that synod will be involved.\u00a0 This work is part of an effort to create advocacy teams around the state that may vary according to local interests and needs, but will have statewide legislative ties.<\/p>\n

Another advisory council member, from the northern part of Wisconsin in an area that is part of the Northern Great Lakes Synod, and I are discussing leading two half-day workshops on LOPPW\u2019s work and hunger issues in two different cities in northern Wisconsin in the fall.<\/p>\n

I also look forward to leading workshops on LOPPW at two synod assemblies and representing ELCA World Hunger at another synod assembly soon.<\/p>\n
