Welcoming ALL newcomers: How to Remove Access Barriers to AA Meetings
When a newcomer gets to their first meeting, we want them to feel welcome. Many of the things we already do work great for many newcomers. But sometimes the newcomer will need a bit more help to access the meeting. It might mean knowing which meetings have childcare or finding a meeting with captioning for people with hearing loss or getting a ride.
Whatever they need, we want to provide. But many times, we are stumped. Where are the resources they need to help them to keep coming back?Corbett O. will share her extensive knowledge of the many ways that AA meetings provide access so that ALL newcomers feel welcome.
