What We Do

Founded in 1988, MICAH is a multi-racial, interfaith organization committed to the justice issues of greatest impact on our communities. Our membership includes 42 congregations. Of many religious traditions, we work in unity to fulfill MICAH’s primary goal: To empower people to act together in pursuit of justice.

In addressing a wide range of issues, MICAH broadens our sphere of influence through affiliations with other like-minded groups.

Statewide with WISDOM

We expand our influence in Wisconsin through our connection with WISDOM, a grassroots organization comprising approximately faith organizations of almost 20 different religious backgrounds.

Our voice is further strengthened by our association with Gamaliel, whose mission seeks to empower ordinary people to effectively participate in political, environmental, social, and economic activities.
