We need your service more than ever. It takes a village to run a conference in service to newcomers and those who need to reach out to the hand of AA/Al-Anon. This is also a great opportunity to meet a lot of attendees whether you’re manning the art booth or taking registrations, among others. Please come to our volunteer recruitment drive and find out how you can be of service during the conference.
