Objet : Appeal to the Cocaine Anonymous Board of Trustees
Yves,
I am writing to request the Board Of Trustees review of my removal as Treasurer and Spending Committee Chair for CAWS 2017. Enclosed are 3 documents supporting my request. I am asking the Board to hear my cause of action on behalf of the conference as I believe the matter requires urgent review. It’s my understanding the Board has a meeting in December and I’m hoping the agenda will permit my concerns to be presented at that time.
I have been deeply impacted (and humbled to be sure) by the events of the last several months and believe we have not acted in accordance with the traditions, concepts, bylaws and guidelines. I hereby ask for the Board’s official review and opinion. I am available for questions should the need present itself, and sincerely appreciate the opportunity to be heard.
Kind Regards,
Jason D. Sparks
