What is a Past Delegate?

Duties

Responsible for the smooth running of Area Assemblies, consulting with the Committee before setting the date and time, making sure that all Groups are notified, consulting with Officers and Committee Members on the program and chairing the Assembly meetings. The Chairperson, more than any other Officer, keeps the Delegate informed about what is going on in the Area, and makes sure that Committee Members are aware of what goes on in World Services.

Qualifications

A solid period of sobriety (minimum three to five years), and experience in Group, Central Office, institutional, and/or Area affairs.

Needs a sound understanding and appreciation of the Steps, Traditions, and the Concepts, along with a good fund of experience gained through applying these guides successfully to local problems. Communication skills, leadership qualities, and sensitivity to the wishes of the Local Area are also important.

Responsibilities

  • Prepares agendas for January & May Area Committee Meetings and the March & September Area Assemblies. The current practice is having the ACMs and Assemblies in the third weekend of the month. Coordinate mail-outs with the Area Secretary leaving ample time for all groups in the Area to plan to attend.
  • Negotiates and books hotel arrangements for the above Area activities.
  • Contacts a fellow member to coordinate our September election and also invites fellowship speakers.
  • Books room reservations for Table and Committee Officers and sponsored guests.

    Web Policy

    This web site observes all AA's practices and principles. Since 'anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions', we practice anonymity at all times. A web site is a public medium which has the potential for reaching the broadest possible audience and therefore requires the same safeguards that we use at the level of press, radio and film.
