Where We Work
The NCCK is a national institution, operating in all the counties in Kenya by virtue of the widespread nature of the membership.
Regional Structure
To enhance its grassroots reach, the Council from 1996 devolved to regions and counties. In this structure, the Council divided the country into 9 regions which serve as the primary theatre of activity.
To establish this governance structure, the member churches and organisations come together at the county level to form a County Coordinating Committee (CCC). Thereafter, several counties are clustered together to form a region.
In this regard, 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 Council constitution, the decisions of the Council’s national governing organs, and the Council’s corporate Vision, Mission, Values and Plans.
