Following two Advisory Actions of the 74th General Service Conference (2024), the\u00a0trustees\u2019 Literature Committee of Alcoholics Anonymous has opened calls for stories\u00a0for two pamphlets: <\/span>\u201cA pamphlet on the Asian and Asian American alcoholic<\/strong><\/em><\/span>\u201d and \u201c<\/span>A\u00a0pamphlet on the transgender alcoholic<\/em><\/strong><\/span>\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

To support A.A. members in the U.S. and Canada who identify as transgender, gender-diverse, or Two-Spirit, and those with ethnic or cultural ties to Asia, working groups of the trustees\u2019 Literature Committee – composed of members from these respective communities – are hosting virtual writing workshops (see schedule below). These sessions offer ideas, practical help, and Q&A on writing and submitting stories for the pamphlets, and are open to anyone who wishes to write their own story, help others in the community to write, or help carry the message about the call for stories.<\/p>\n

Area Delegates are invited to share this information widely within their Areas and with\u00a0local service entities (Intergroups\/Central Offices, Literature\/Accessibilities\/Remote\u00a0Communities committees, YPAA committees, etc.). Service entities interested in\u00a0hosting their own workshop with support from working group members may contact:<\/p>\n
