In this video, we depict our advocacy surrounding Attorney General Kaul’s investigation into clergy sexual abuse, including the process leading up to the announcement and our response to the investigation’s progress. The video features the recent history of our advocacy in Wisconsin beginning with our revelations of failed 2018 gubernatorial candidate and Church lawyer, Matt Flynn's, role in cover-up of clergy sexual abuse. The video incorporates audio recordings from several calls between Nate’s Mission and Kaul's administration and email messages from the DOJ to survivors. 

We didn’t record our calls with the Attorney General’s office to create a “gotcha” moment for Josh Kaul and his staff. We take no joy in releasing this to the media. In fact, these recordings and the actions of the Wisconsin DOJ are a great source of pain for us, personally as survivors and advocates, for our organization, and for all victims of clergy abuse who expected more from Attorney General Kaul and his investigation. We agonized over this decision and ultimately chose to share this because Wisconsin survivors deserve to know it.

Nate’s Mission is the only survivor-led organization in Wisconsin advocating for a justice-centered investigation and challenging the Attorney General to hold the Catholic Church accountable for their crimes against Wisconsin’s children.
