CLOSING COMMENTS:
The H&I Committee looks forward to the 2014 World Conference, we hope to recruit new committee members and receive some referrals this year. H&I is committed to passing the message of Cocaine Anonymous to those who are unable to get to us. We need your fresh outlook and ideas to make C.A. as a whole more effective in supporting our potential members. We need to let the clients know where to find us when they are ready to leave the institution they are in. Many of us came into C.A because of something we heard in an H&I Panel; this has really inspired us to do the same for those who are still out there suffering. This Committee is extremely passionate about H&I; we want as many people as possible to get involved.
We welcome any suggestions or ideas from the fellowship; your insight can better our services to the H&I committees around the world. We also request participation from the Conference floor in regards to tracking the Lifeline’s progress in all the different areas around the world. Members have approached us for information about the Lifeline and how it has evolved over the past couple years.
Please take the next minute or so to fill out the very short questionnaire, to help us gather your areas information on H&I and the Lifeline. All members interested in being a part of the H&I Committee or even if they just want to add some input, please join us in the Breakout session or ask us to add you to the Yahoo group.
