Clergy Sexual Ethics Committee

The Conference Clergy Sexual Ethics Committee (CCSE) oversees the development and implementation of policy statements regarding clergy misconduct of a sexual nature. The CCSE committee will see that all Conference statements are in compliance with the current General Conference legislation.

In addition to a Conference policy, the CCSE committee is charged with assisting local churches and United Methodist agencies and institutions within the Conference to develop and implement similar policies for their locations.
