About Committee

Name: Corrections

Scope:

  • Encourage A.A. members to assume responsibility to carry the message to alcoholics who cannot, of their own free will, seek A.A. help due to incarceration in a correctional facility.
  • Review all aspects of service to A.A. groups in correctional facilities within Area 41 and make recommendations for changes and/or improvements.
  • Work closely with the Cooperation with the Professional Community & Public Information Committee and Accessibilities, Accommodations, Treatment and Remote Communities Committee to prevent duplication of effort.

Current Activities/Get Involved

Did you know?  Any member of Area 41 can attend an Area 41 Assembly and/or be a member of a Standing Committee, regardless of whether they are currently a voting member at Area Assemblies.

Current Activities and Projects
We are putting together a list of meetings that are currently being taken into correctional facilities (state and county) in Nebraska. We want to focus on the youth facilities and get meetings into those places. We are trying to get AA meetings into the Tecumseh State Correctional Institution (TSCI) again.

Get Involved
If you know of any meetings being taken into correctional facilities, let us know and we will add it to the list. If you would like to be of service and take meetings into correctional facilities, let us know and we will find a place for you to serve.
