Our central office or Intergroup exists to support the groups in their common purpose of carrying the A.A. message to the still suffering alcoholic by providing and coordinating services that are difficult for the individual groups to execute. The Fellowship has been organized by, and is responsible to, the member groups in Phoenix and Scottsdale for the purpose of coordinating the services that individual groups cannot provide.
Salt River Intergroup is self-supporting primarily through contributions made by its member groups. There is additional income from the Special Events and from the sale of A.A. Conference-approved literature and other recovery items at the Central Office.
The Steering Committee provides direction and sets policy for Central Office and the Standing and Special Event Committees.
The office employs a full-time Office Manager and part-time Office Assistant. They ensure smooth operation of the day-to-day functions.
The Office provides the following services when it is open:
Answering the A.A. hotline, handling inquiries and contacting local 12th Step volunteers when outreach to a suffering alcoholic is needed.
Carrying inventory and selling a selection of conference approved and other recovery literature.
Displaying information for A.A. and other closely related events.
Producing and distributing the Phoenix Valleywide Meeting List.
