Conference-approved literature.<br \/>\u2022 Correspond with an inmate through the<br \/>Corrections Correspondence Service.<br \/>\u2022 Support corrections committees in your district, area or intergroup\/central office.<br \/>\u2022 Participate in correctional facilities workshops.<\/p><p>In carrying the message inside a correctional facility, we are sharing our experience, strength and hope with another alcoholic. We let our stories speak for themselves. Our audience is more interested in learning how to stay sober than in hearing how we got drunk, so we talk about our program of recovery with the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous.<\/p><p>Deciding to participate in corrections Twelfth Step work is an important individual decision. A.A. members should carefully read all paperwork required by correctional facilities, and<\/p><p>fully understand and be willing to comply with all rules\/regulations prior to commencing such work. Dress neatly and in keeping with the requirements of the facility. A.A. is a program of attraction.<\/p><p>The only thing we take in is our message. Take nothing out\u2014no letters, messages or notes. Don\u2019t promise anything but sobriety.<\/p><p>By giving this program away, we get to keep it.<\/p><p>REMEMBER:<\/p><p>When anyone, anywhere reaches out for help, I want the hand of A.A. always to be there.<br \/>And for that <b>I am responsible.<\/b><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Copyright \u00a9 2019<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">by Alcoholics Anonymous World Services, Inc.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">All rights reserved.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">P.O.
