In 2007, Mercy Ministries International (now Mercy Multiplied America) adopted a governance model that brought a new level of program consistency, oversight, and accountability, and positioned Mercy to expand its reach and increase its effectiveness throughout the world. Mercy Multiplied is governed by this model in the United States, as are its affiliates in the United Kingdom, and Canada.
An executive director and board of directors oversee operations in each country, and the board of Mercy Multiplied International oversees each country’s board of directors.
