AA District 60 Announcements

The District has a couple of open service positions We need a Treatment Facilities coordinator, and a PI/CPC coordinator. It’s suggested you have two years’ sobriety, and a little experience at the Group level.

From the AA Treatment Facilities Workbook: “The primary purpose of a Treatment Committee is the same throughout the United States and Canada, to carry the A.A. message to the alcoholic who still suffers. There is probably no better place for an A.A. member to find a suffering alco-
holic than in a treatment facility or outpatient treatment setting.”

From the Public Information Workbook: “Public Information (P.I.) in Alcoholics Anonymous means carrying the message of recovery to the still-suffering alcoholic by informing the general public about the A.A. program. We carry the message by getting in touch with and responding to the media, schools, industry, and other organizations which can report on the nature and purpose of A.A. and what it can do for alcoholics.”

From the Cooperation with the Professional Community Workbook: “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 communication between A.A.s and professionals, and to find simple, effective ways of cooperating without affiliating.”

“C.P.C. came into being as a distinct entity in 1970 when the trustees’ committee was formed as an outgrowth of the Public Information Committee.” PI/CPC is technically two separate positions, but most groups and Districts combine them.

These are excellent opportunities to be of service to suffering alcoholics and the AA community. If you’re interested in either position, talk to your group’s GSR or email [email protected] .
