Pacific Regional Forum Seattle, Washington

The 2006 Pacific Regional Forum in Seattle, Washington, echoed the theme of this year's AA General Service Conference: "Sponsorship, Service, and Self-support in a Changing World." The three day event (June 23-25) featured sharing on all three of those subjects in presentations and workshops led by delegates and visiting speakers. Organizing the event around the Conference theme is in keeping with the mission of regional forums: improving communication and participation among AA members, the General Service Board, and the General Service Office and Grapevine staff. Forums also recreate an experience similar to the Conference for AA members who cannot attend the annual April event.
