Help Bring AA Back to the Prisons

The Corrections Committee is looking for volunteers to bring AA’s message of hope and recovery to those who are incarcerated. Rhode Island’s prisons have not had in-person meetings since early 2020, and with the easing of pandemic restrictions, the time is now to fill out the application, so we can be ready when in-person meetings resume.

The Men’s & Women’s Area 61 ACI Coordinators will help with scheduling during our filling of meetings so they can all get covered. We want the message of AA to be consistent and we don’t want our volunteers over extended doing this service. Please join us and thank you for your service.

Even if you can’t join us, you can still help by making this announcement at all of the meetings you are currently attending. Spread the Word!
