What the Heck is this all about?!

The Delegates and non-Delegate members of the Fellowship-Wide Services Conference meet once a year at the Annual Business Meeting to discuss and vote upon the business of the Fellowship.  Any Intergroup, and any collection of 2 or more S.L.A.A. meetings in the same locality may be represented by one or more Delegates at the Conference.  If your Intergroup or area does not have a Delegate, bring it up, volunteer, and come to the ABM!  Besides giving you an opportunity to get involved in service at the Fellowship-Wide Services level, the ABM is a great time, and it is immediately followed by the International Recovery Convention, which is just a plain-old, sober hootenanny.  If you are interested and need more information than is provided here, call Fellowship-Wide Services at +1 (210) 828-7900 or click here.
