Honoring ACA’s Birthday Together

Honoring ACA’s Birthday Together

Dear Fellow Traveler,
In January we celebrate ACA’s 47th Birthday, honoring the community that has helped so many of us on the path to recovery. It’s a moment to reflect on the shared journey we’ve taken together—a journey of healing, growth, and connection.
As we mark this annual occasion, we’re reminded of the countless lives that have been touched by ACA’s message. For many, this community has been a source of comfort, strength, and inspiration.
While traditional therapy often comes at a significant cost, ACA offers a unique community and tools for healing without financial barriers. This vital work, however, depends on the ongoing generosity of our members.
If ACA has been a meaningful part of your journey, we invite you to join us in honoring this tradition by considering a contribution. Every gift, no matter the size, helps ensure ACA’s programs and resources remain accessible to all who seek recovery.
Make Your Gift Today

Whether or not you choose to give, we are grateful for your presence in this community. Together, we continue to light the way for those who are just beginning their journey.
With gratitude,
Your ACAWSO Team
P.S. Contributions to ACA help us provide critical resources and support for adult children worldwide. If you feel inspired, we’d be honored by your support.

Veckomail från Europakommittén

Dear European ACA fellowships,

I want to confirm the great news that in the upcoming European Committee Teleconference we will have a Broad discussion with some of ACA Trustees and the Chair of Safety resources committee on our usual October 5th meeting! So everybody from ACA is invited there and the zoom codes are the usual ones for EC teleconferences 🙂 See agenda in a separate email 🙂

Also, volunteers in Europe are called and  needed to join the planning committee for the 2025 Annual World Convention (AWC)! The AWC planning committee is looking to find service members across various time zones to plan and coordinate our annual virtual convention. 

Here are some ways you can get involved in helping make the AWC a reality! You can choose what resonates with you:

– Review workshop submissions and interview potential presenters
– Assist the communications team in spreading the word about the Convention
– Answer questions from the fellowship as an AWC email monitor
– Support presenters before and during the event

To volunteer, please fill in the registration form.
Questions? Email us at awc@acawso.org

Third, something being discussed at the European Committee level is how to help new recovery meetings and foster growth of new IGs. We would love to see the community grow and as the European Committee itself is growing in service  I wonder from time to time how it FEELS like for Intergroups  – are you able to stay ahead of the challenges you are facing and are able to resolve them successfully? I would love to read your feedback if you would reply to this email 🙂   

Something crazy and related that I thought about as I write this – forming a sharing space / a meeting of mental and emotional recovery for all the chairs of Intergroups in Europe and I think to myself wow as I write this.- would be glad to hear any echos and feedback from you guys if that idea is something that you would participate in 🙂 

With this email please find the minutes of the previous (September) Teleconference where we had an interesting discussion about fear in service 🙂 (link to september EC TC minutes)

In loving service,
Edmundas.

Meddelande till samtliga grupper Meddelande till samtliga ACA – grupper i Sverige

Vi hoppas att ni vill sprida detta meddelande vid alla möten under perioden fram till höstens SK. 

Stegen / Traditionerna / SERVICE Att göra service är en av hörnstenarna i tillfrisknandet. Välkommen som ny medlem i Servicegruppen (SG) för ACA. 

Vi vill med detta korta meddelande uppmana alla som har gjort de 12 stegen och som sponsrar programmet och kanske även varit GSR / Kassör i en grupp att överväga möjligheten att göra service som medlem i SG, som arbetar ideellt för alla gruppers välmående. Vi i SG finner stor glädje att ge tillbaka det vi själva har fått genom att andra medlemmar har gjort denna service före oss. Just nu har vi flera vice poster lediga. Det ger en möjlighet att i lugn takt gå bredvid och lära sig av en ordinarie innan denne roterar ut. Just nu söker vi:
