District Committees

Archives Committee

This position is currently vacant.

The mission of the Archives Committee is to give the Fellowship a sense of its own past and the opportunity to study it, to keep the record straight so that myth does not predominate over fact.  An A.A. archive consists of any historical collection at the level of the group, district, area, intergroup/central office, region, or General Service Office.

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.

The Corrections committee coordinates the work of individual A.A. members and groups who are interested in carrying our message of recovery to incarcerated alcoholics. Bringing meetings and literature into facilities, raising awareness of the Corrections Correspondence Service (C.C.S.) among "inside" and "outside" A.A. members, and helping inmates transition to a local A.A. Community through pre-release contacts are just some of the activities corrections committees support.

Treatment Facilities

Chairperson: Evan H.

While A.A. is not affiliated with any form of alcoholism treatment, the A.A. Treatment committee is essential in carrying the A.A. message into treatment settings where the suffering alcoholic may be introduced to A.A. for the first time. The local Bridging the Gap program, or BTG, connects the new member being discharged from a facility to A.A. in their community. Clients can request contacts through the A.A. Temporary Contact/Bridging the Gap Request form. A.A. members can serve as A.A. Temporary Contact/Bridging the Gap volunteers.
