  Committee on Representation

The General Assembly Committee on Representation (GACOR), in its constitutional mandate, shall advise, advocate, resource, review, recommend, and consult with the General Assembly committees, councils, and divisions to ensure that the principles of inclusiveness are implemented. GACOR also provides advice to the General Assembly Nominating Committee when participation is needed in particular categories.

Another important function is that of serving as an advocate for the representation of racial ethnic members, women, youth, different age groups, and persons with disabilities. GACOR advises the governing bodies on employment of personnel in conformity with the Churchwide Plan for Affirmative Action/Equal Employment Opportunity.
