General Services of Southeast Michigan
Area 33
Young People in Alcoholics Anonymous - Updated 04/20/09
Various Young People's groups throughout Michigan elect Liaisons to Area 33 General Services of Southeast Michigan. They represent either a Bid Committee or a Conference Committee and attend the regularly scheduled monthly Area 33 Assembly Meetings. They keep our area informed on the progress of their committees, announce events they are hosting, and participate in our Area Meetings.
About Young People’s Groups
Young People’s Groups try to make the newcomer understand that 20 + years of drinking coupled with the loss of family, friends, and finances are not necessary for one to be ready for sobriety.
Young People’s Groups bring the newcomer into the mainstream of AA Recovery, Service, and Unity through the Twelve Steps, Twelve Traditions, and the Twelve Concepts of World Service, carrying AA’s message to the suffering alcoholic.
Young People’s Groups are in no way separate from Alcoholics Anonymous. Members of Young People’s Groups are involved in and committed to Twelve Step work, hospital and institution work, public information, general service, and every other facet of AA service. Newcomers are shown by people their own age that using AA principles in their daily lives and getting involved in AA service can lead to a lasting and comfortable sobriety.
