Public Information & Resources
Public Information (PI) in Alcoholics Anonymous is about getting the message of recovery out to the alcoholic who still suffers. We do this through implementing various strategies to inform the general public about the AA program.
Primary Purpose of the Group
“Each group has but one primary purpose – to carry its message to the alcoholic who still suffers.” Are you looking for a way that your group can better fulfil it’s primary purpose?
What is the role of a General Service Representative?
“The strength of our whole general service structure starts with the group and the general service representative (GSR) the group elects. I cannot emphasize too strongly the GSR’s importance.” The general service representative has the job of linking his or her group with A.A. as a whole.
