- The Forum committee introduces new and old GSRs to the Regional Forum.
- The Regional Forum provides a special opportunity of direct communication and personal contact with people from the General Service Office and its staff. Regional Forums are sharing sessions among area A.A.’s and G.S.O.
- It is hoped that by learning more about service, the GSRs will be incited into more active service in their local areas.
- The Forum committee is entrusted with funds to sponsor GSRs to the Regional Forum by paying their accommodation, travel and food expenses. We feel that this is a good investment in establishing an A.A. in service and sobriety.
- The requirements for qualifying for funds are suggested by the committee and voted on by the area assembly.
