MEETING RESOURCES
Looking for suggestions on how to handle meetings in light of COVID-19? In an effort to support the groups and members in District 20, we are providing the information below and ask each of you to consider the unity and common welfare of our Fellowship. COVID-19 is an unprecedented global pandemic; drastic measures to reduce the spread of this infection may be chosen so that the hand of A.A. will be there when this is over.
Each group is autonomous and can choose what action to take using an informed group conscience. It is up to each individual member to take precautions for personal safety. We encourage you to use the Twelve Traditions and the Twelve Concepts, as well as information from the World Health Organization and the Center for Disease Control as guidelines for basic protective measures against the new coronavirus.
ONLINE GROUPS AND TOOLS
You can set up conference calls (telephone, video or both) at the day and time of your regular meeting. You can hold the meeting entirely virtual or you can have a computer at your meeting site and allow both in-person and virtual participation. You can also consider using these tools for sponsoring activities.
Here are several free technologies you might want to try:
SERVICE HOW TO DOCUMENTS
Cisco Webex
FreeConferenceCall.com
Microsoft Teams
An online meeting is being explored that will show you how to create an online meeting. If you are interested in helping test this concept, please contact Lisa W. at 760 608 2706 or email at trustspirit1111 @ gmail . com for more information.
