The Vermont Area World Service Committee (AWSC) serves as the Area’s group conscience, meeting regularly between the semi-annual Area Assemblies. Please contact the area chair if you are interested in area service: chair@vermontalanonalateen.org.
Committee members are asked to attend committee meetings in order to create an informed group conscience and to conduct Area business. Members are asked to send in a report to fulfill Tradition 9 (“directly responsible to those they serve”) – when they cannot attend a meeting.
Service Experience
It is helpful to have had previous service experience at the group and/or district level in serving at the area level. Outgoing Area Committee members are often available to provide training and support.
“Tolerance, responsibility, flexibility, and vision” are helpful qualities. (Concept 9, p. 202, Al-Anon/Alateen Service Manual)
See p67-69 in the Al-Anon/Alateen Service Manual about AWSC service.
