WNPJ is a network of 80+ member organizations throughout Wisconsin.
The Wisconsin Network for Peace & Justice (WNPJ) was founded in 1991 as a coalition of activist groups and citizens of conscience within Wisconsin.
Each of our member organizations operates independently. We also have individuals and families who join our network, and we work with partner organizations.
