Regional Forum events allow members throughout the service structure to exchange information. They bring together:

  • The General Service Board
  • A.A. World Services, Inc.
  • A.A. Grapevine, Inc.
  • The General Service Office and Grapevine staff
  • A.A. members
  • Newcomers to service
  • Trusted servants

Started in 1975, these unique gatherings happen four times a year. Each forum occurs in one of the eight regions of the U.S. or Canada that has extended an invitation. The regional trustee, area delegates and GSO decide on the location and agenda for Regional Forums. Together, the forums coordinator at GSO, the local A.A. host contact, and the regional trustee coordinate the details of the Forum.
