You can contact the World Service Office via email at *protected email* or by phone at (772) 878-9657. In addition, they assist in creating and publishing the Abstinent Times. The Office Committee is responsible for overseeing the World Service Office and Staff. They are also responsible for updating the Bylaws to include new changes voted on by the FAA Board of Trustees. This committee is responsible for proposing necessary changes as needed to keep the ByLaws current. Although this committee has been working hard this year, we can always use more help. The Convention is our largest fundraiser for the organization.

The responsibility of this committee is to assist the FAA Board with the planning, coordination and implementation of the World Service Convention. Please contact the WSO, who will forward any information onto the Literature Committee Chair. In addition, the board also approved a revision of the FAA Cookbook. But it first begins with input from the literature committee. This is a long term project that will go through many stages of approval. 2008 approved the start of a Green Book revision, but we do not have the manpower to put this into action. This is the committee that reviews new publications and updates current FAA publications. Our literature committee has a very big job in FAA. No one person, including the Chairperson has more votes than any other. All committees are run with a group conscience. However, we ask that you come with a willingness to serve and an open mind to listen to each otherвЂ™s input. There is no abstinence requirement to be on the committees. The FAA committees submit their recommendations to the FAA Board.(See below) Most of these committees do much of their work via e-mail. If you are new to FAA, or have been in FAA awhile and desire to do service at the World Service Level, service on an FAA Committee is the best way to begin. In addition, service allows you to contribute to the many ways FAA develops as an organization. Service is a component of supporting your program and remaining abstinent.
