Advocacy during COVID-19 and Beyond

COVID-19 changed many parts of the economy as well as our social and religious life together. While we are no longer in quarantine, meeting virtually allows us to connect with advocates throughout California.

With new challenges, we’ve found new opportunity to engage with the 400 ELCA congregations in our state through a weekly virtual briefing. It’s still AiQ, with a new name! Advocacy, Info, and Questions. Join us Wednesdays at noon on Zoom. If you would like to subscribe to an email reminder for AIQ, email Edie at thelotts@gmail.com. AIQ is paused until the legislature reconvenes its biennial session in January.
