  • Why A.A.s Carry the Message Behind the Walls
    Many A.A. members are unaware of the important work being carried out by corrections committees. To those involved, however, corrections work is an opportunity to
    carry the A.A. message to the confined alcoholic who wants to live sober, one day at a
    time. Through a corrections committee working with corrections personnel, alcoholics
    are reached who might never otherwise find the A.A. program. An active corrections committee is a vital link to prisons and jails, providing professionals and other workers in correctional facilities with information about A.A., literature, and guidelines for setting up A.A. groups on the inside.

District and Intergroup are requesting your assistance!

Communication Gap:
Communication is a very important part of being in the AA community. The groups need to communicate their needs to Intergroup and Intergroup needs to compile all of the groups needs to District. Currently this is not happening effectively at all.

What needs to be done to help fix this?
It is recommended that at a minimum, 1 person become your groups point of contact. Intergroup and/or District want to keep your group informed of updates. Your group with also have a direct connection to let Intergroup know your needs and suggestions.

Best Scenario:
Each group would have both a GSR and an Intergroup Representative. These individuals would lead their Group Meetings and keep Intergroup informed.

If you need more information on the service positions please see as Intergroup representative. We also have Brochures that explain these positions.

If you want to help but aren’t sure you want to be the groups GSR or Intergroup Representative. We are looking for someone to handle communication between your group and Intergroup.
