About Us
WHO WE ARE!
"We are an AA service entity created by and answering directly to local AA groups".
We are men and women of AA groups from central South Carolina AA districts 22, 31, 42, 43, 50, and 51. We serve on a volunteer basis as daytime office workers, and in the evenings as steering committee members, and Intergroup representatives. Our phone number 803-254-5301, is our AA Hotline and is answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week by volunteers from our member groups.
Our sobriety ranges from newcomer to old-timer. Some of us are retired and some are just starting our lives again. There are service opportunities for every length of sobriety.

WHAT WE DO
."WE PROVIDE 12 STEP SERVICE TO CENTRAL SOUTH CAROLINA".
DAYTIME VOLUNTEERS:
Our daytime volunteers are the backbone of your Intergroup's 12-Step service. One must have at least 6 months of sobriety to serve in this capacity, but many of our treasured regular volunteers are "old-timers" with double-digit sobriety. Regular volunteers serve one 4-hour shift per week. "Floating volunteers" serve as often as they like - anywhere from once every week or two to once every two or three months.
Volunteers answer the phone- most often giving meeting information, and directing our fellowship members or the public to proper resources. Volunteers sell AA literature, pass out schedules and free pamphlets as well as other services.
INTERGROUP REPRESENTATIVES:
Each group frome our service area is eligible to send a representative to our monthly Intergroup meetings. Your Intergroup answers directly to these reps , who are the group conscious of your Intergroup. They govern your Intergroup and must have at least one year of sobriety in order to serve.
INTERGROUP STEERING COMMITTEE:
The six-person steering committee, elected from the Intergroup reprerepresentatives, sets goals, manages the financial obligations, inventory, oversees volunteers and other operations. Steering committee members must have at least two years of sobriety.
