Description
Why Is This Important?
Many AA members hear terms like GSR, DCM, Area Delegate, General Service Office, and General Service Conference without fully understanding how they fit together.
This pamphlet uses simple visual illustrations to show how every member, group, district, area, and service entity contributes to carrying the AA message. It helps members see how the Fellowship remains connected through Recovery, Unity, and Service.
Understanding the service structure encourages greater participation and helps members discover opportunities to give back through service work.
