Hunger Advocacy Fellowship Opening in Arizona

Now Accepting Applications: Hunger Advocate for One-Year Fellowship with LAMA

Through the support of ELCA World Hunger, the ELCA Witness in Society advocacy team works in partnership with statewide advocacy ministry networks across the United States — like LAMA — to end hunger by engaging directly with local, state and national governments and equipping people of faith to seek justice through advocacy. Each State Public Policy Office (SPPO) relates to the synods in their state and works closely with hunger leaders and synod teams.

The Hunger Advocacy Fellow will participate in a year-long transformative experience that combines leadership development and faith formation with impactful advocacy that moves us toward an end to hunger and a just world where all are fed.

The 2023-24 Hunger Advocacy Fellow placed with Lutheran Advocacy Ministry in Arizona (LAMA), will serve as a member of the staff of this ELCA-affiliated SPPO as a full-time contract employee. The position's hourly rate is $20 per hour plus benefits including health insurance, arranged through LAMA. The position begins in September 2023.

Focusing on analyzing and addressing the root causes of hunger and economic injustice, and promoting a holistic approach to hunger ministry, the Hunger Advocacy Fellow will build ELCA World Hunger capacity to end hunger by deepening and expanding Lutheran statewide advocacy efforts in synods, coalitions and networks.
