LCPPM Mission Statement:

Lutheran Coalition for Public Policy in Minnesota, in response to God's love, seeks to engage all people of faith in the promotion of public policy that supports peace, justice and care for all of God's Creation.

 

The LCPPM is one of 10 state public policy offices of the ELCA. Our ministry of advocacy for the ELCA is expressed through partnership with the six ELCA synods and ELCA World Hunger.
