Church of Scotland - Priority Areas Team

The Priority Areas Committee is one of the four main areas of the Ministries Council. It is responsible for the support, development and coordination of the Church's work within its poorest 58 communities in Scotland. A list of these communities is available to download at the site.

Completed projects:

Chance to Thrive project (current)
This project involves working with congregations in the CTT project to carry out local evaluations and to develop their skills and capacity for the future.

Priority Areas Evaluation (2010)
This project involved working with the PA committee and staff team to carry out work to develop an evaluation framework to highlight and demonstrate impact of PAC’s work on priority areas in Scotland. The end result was an impact evaluation report: Making a Difference in priority Areas.
