What Is a District in Alcoholics Anonymous
In Alcoholics Anonymous, a district is a local service unit that helps coordinate and support AA groups within a specific geographic area. Think of it as a way for groups in nearby towns or neighborhoods to stay connected and work together to carry AA’s message more effectively.
Key Functions of a District:
- Elects a District Committee Member (DCM): The DCM acts as a liaison between the district and the broader AA service structure, including the Area Assembly.
- Hosts District Meetings: These meetings allow group representatives (called GSRs—General Service Representatives) to share updates, discuss issues, and plan service activities.
- Coordinates Outreach and Events: Districts may organize workshops, speaker meetings, public information efforts, and other service opportunities.
Where Districts Fit in the AA Structure
In Alcoholics Anonymous, the service structure helps groups stay connected and carry the message of recovery. It starts with individual AA groups, which may elect a General Service Representative (GSR) to represent them at the district level.
A district is a group of AA meetings in a local area. GSRs meet regularly to share updates and coordinate service. Each district elects a District Committee Member (DCM) who connects the district to the larger area.
An area includes several districts, like Area 68, which covers much of South Texas. Areas hold assemblies to make decisions and share information with the General Service Office (GSO) in New York, which supports AA worldwide.
This structure keeps AA unified and ensures that every group has a voice in how the fellowship serves others.
