Shared Experience From an A.A. Member On Working with Remote Communities

“Inspired by a suggestion brought forth at our latest Eastern Canada Regional Forum, our committee is now adopting groups in these communities by sending them A.A. books and pamphlets, old speaker tapes, and past issues of the Grapevine as well as new subscriptions. We also send them flyers of upcoming events in our area and give them the names of A.A.s who are willing to be telephone buddies (and sometimes even temporary sponsors), so they can have someone else to talk to outside of their small group. I’m being told by these members that they no longer feel isolated — they feel very much a part of our area.” [AA Grapevine, February 2002]
