8th Tradition read by Hayward H. Cocaine Anonymous should remain forever nonprofessional, but our service centers may employ special workers.
8th Concept read by Hayward H. The Trustees of the World Service Board act in two primary capacities: (a) With respect to the larger matters of overall policy and finance, they are the principal planners and administrators. They and their primary committees directly manage these affairs, (b) But with respect to our separately incorporated and constantly active services, the relation of the Trustees is mainly that of custodial oversight which they exercise through their ability to elect all Directors of these entities.
