Sponsorship Behind the Walls

 

ABCD Regional H&I Sub-Committee Introducing Sponsorship Behind the Walls!

We are looking for Men & Women in the 6 areas of the ABCD Region who are interested in sponsoring inmates currently incarcerated in the Department of Corrections .

The newly formed ABCD Regional H&I Sub-Committee will soon be forming a Sponsorship Behind the Walls Committee; NA members who will correspond with inmates anonymously through the Regional POBox.

The guidelines and requirements will be available soon, following a sub-committee meeting soon to be announced. We will be setting up the policies and procedures, which will include the facilities we will serve first. As soon as the policy and procedures are ready, we will be screening step guides (sponsors). There are currently only 7 or 8 such programs in the United States.

Albany/Rensselaer, Berkshire, Green Mountain, Mohawk, Mid-Hudson and SAMMA Areas – we need your help to reach out to members who currently DO NOT Volunteer in State Correctional facilities. Members who work steps with a sponsor, who are willing to work steps with inmates anonymously.

We need to know volunteers are interested for us to get this started. Please contact us, or bring a list of names & phone #’s with clean date to your Area Service Meeting and submit to the RCM who can then return it to the Regional Sub-Committtee. Remember, we can only keep it, if we give it away! In loving service!
