Advocacy Team

The Advocacy Team champions individual, church, and diocesan engagement in the public discourse about issues, policies, and legislation that affects and deals with the most vulnerable among us at the Federal and State levels. Areas of focus include Creation Care, Racial Reconciliation, Ending Poverty, Migration-Refugees-Immigration, Human Rights and Peace Building. Our efforts are guided by resolutions passed at General Convention and the work of the Episcopal Office of Government Relations.

The Team is the focal point for advocacy education and distributing and publicizing advocacy events and resources to churches and individuals in the diocese, and leads participation in advocacy days at the state capital.
