WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO HAVE A SERVICE POSITION IN PA-A?

A service commitment is a commitment you make to serve others. You may do this in one of several ways. You could be a sponsor, a meeting leader, a secretary, a timer or help with maintaining literature or other organization work.

For example, a sponsor is helping another person learning to live life with the help of the 12 steps. A service commitment aims to transfer experience from one person to another. Service is horizontal and all volunteer based. That means the organization relies on everyone to participate in order to continue, succeed and thrive.

Service is the backbone to being a successful member of PA-A and to contribute to your own personal growth.
