AREA 58 DISTRICT 7

Outreach is 12th step work in action!

The Outreach committee needs your help. We are looking for volunteers for all of these three critical programs but especially and currently looking for members willing to share their experience, strength and hope in a panel format in local treatment facilities. Come to a District 7 meeting to find out more. Please contact Joey at gpaatxchair@gmail.com.

Treatment

SHARE YOUR experience, strength and hope.

Treatment Committees are formed to coordinate the work of individual A.A. members and groups who are interested in carrying our message of recovery to alcoholics in treatment and outpatient settings, and to set up means of “bridging the gap” from the facility to an A.A. group in the individual’s community.

Bridging the Gap

***

Part of Bridging the Gap between a treatment program and A.A. is the Temporary Contact Program, which is designed to help the alcoholic in an alcoholism treatment program make
that transition.

CPC - Cooperation with the Professional Community

***

Members of C.P.C. committees inform professionals and future professionals about A.A. — what we are, where we are, what we can do, and what we cannot do. They attempt to establish better com munication between A.A.s and professionals, and to find simple, effective ways of cooperating without affiliating.

Assemblies

The Area Assembly is a meeting of GSRs and committee members to discuss area affairs and elect officers & a delegate to the General Service Conference held each spring in New York. All members of AA are encouraged to particpate in workshops and sharing sessions of the Assembly.

Oregon Area Assemblies are hosted by Districts four times a year in different parts of the state.

Bill W. on General Services and the GSR

The strength of our whole AA service structure starts with the group and with the general service representative (GSR) the group elects. I cannot emphasize too strongly the GSR's importance.

BIG thanks to all the groups who are represented by a GSR and support them by sending them to Area assemblies.
