REPORT & RECOMMENDATIONS 

General Brian Peddle made a commitment to re-energizing The Salvation Army's focus on gender equity as a spiritual imperative in regard to God's value of all those who he calls into ministry. This document is a call to action for the Canada and Bermuda Territory to follow through on this commitment. The recommendations shared in this document are grounded in theology, built on previous Salvationist gender equity work, based on the lived experience of women officers in the territory, and guided by gender equity best practices and current research.

The report and recommendations content is the basis of the gender equity continuous improvement plan and can be subject to change. Click here to download the final report of the gender equity task force (members outlined below).
