Where We Work
To enhance her grassroots reach, the Council has devolved her structures to regions and counties under the County Coordinating Committee (CCC). This structure (CCC) comprises the member churches and organizations. The Council has thus divided the country into nine regions comprising five or six counties which serve as the primary theater of activity.
The nine regions are:

Governance Organs of the Regions
To effect the regional structure, the following governance organs have been established:
i. Regional Conference
This brings together representatives of member Churches and organizations within the Region. It meets once every three years in between the Council’s General Assemblies.
ii. Regional Committee
This is the executive arm of the Regional Conference, and meets twice a year. It is responsible to the Regional Conference, and works closely with the Council staff at the Regional office.
iii. County Coordinating Committee
These are set up to facilitate the work of the Regional Committees at the County Level. They are answerable to the Regional Committee.
NOTE: Regions do not have legal autonomy separate from the Council, and their decisions must be in accord with the decisions of the Council’s national governing organs as well as the Council’s corporate Vision, Mission, Values and Plans.
