The Meros Center was created to be a place where faith-based health organizations, researchers, and learners can find the support they need to measure, innovate, and share their impact. In this vibrant hub of networking and discovery, believers work together to reflect the life, ministry, and mission of Jesus.
Our mission was brought to life by a partnership between Kingdom Workers and Wisconsin Lutheran College. Both organizations are committed to the vision of Meros.
