The Church Unemployment Pay Program (CUPP) was developed to assist Wisconsin parishes, schools, and other church employers meet their social justice responsibilities by providing church-funded unemployment coverage for lay employees in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee and the Dioceses of La Crosse, Madison, and Superior. The Diocese of Green Bay administers its own unemployment program.
All applications for benefits must now be submitted by qualified applicants using the CUPP secure online portal on the CUPP website:
