2024<\/strong> District News:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

District 53 was formed in April 2024 and has been meeting on the first Saturday of each month at noon eastern time. Although there are 19 groups in our District, there are few GRs and even fewer attendees at our meetings. Currently Angel B. a Whats App meeting – Many Voices One Journey Al-Anon group, is our District Rep (DR). Our district meeting discussions have centered around encouraging service within the groups in our district. Angel is attending some group meetings to learn more and is bringing information back to these meetings. There are four of us that attend the district meeting, and most will be rotating out when the panel rotates on December 31. 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
