Advocacy & Engagement

The General Board is an advocate for environmental stewardship, human and workers’ rights, access to health care and sound corporate governance practices, in accordance with the Social Principles and The Book of Resolutions.

For the General Board, advocacy is an interpersonal effort that takes place through meetings and other communications with company executives and federal regulatory agencies. We write letters, dialogue with companies, file shareholder resolutions and actively vote proxy ballots for almost 3,000 companies annually.
