Yearly Meeting Committees

Volunteer oversight of the projects and services of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting rests with five Standing Committees. For people who may be familiar with an earlier PYM structure, the Standing Committees replaced the three Coordinating Committees, effective 1 April 1998. Two other critical PYM committees are the Financial Stewardship Committee which manages the authorization process of the Yearly Meeting budget, and the Nominating Committee which brings to Interim Meeting volunteers to serve on PYM committees and representatives to external and affiliated organizations.


Please visit the individual committee pages for contact information.

Some annual reports from Committees and Working Groups are available online at the Annual Reports page.
