“Leading conversations and rebuilding connections to fight the social and political polarization in Wisconsin”
What We Do
At Discovering Freedom, we talk about social issues so that they aren’t scary anymore. Our conversations are for everyone, regardless of background knowledge, bias, or political affiliation. We connect people so that we all have the freedom to get along with our neighbors and family members without fear or judgment. We believe everyone has more in common than we think and that we are stronger than the things that divide us. All Wisconsinites can unify over our shared values of truth, safety, and freedom.

Talking about transgender people can seem especially confusing, and it can make a lot of good folks disagree and feel divided.

Our completely free method focuses on keeping it simple, normal, and human through our three pronged approach:
