They are in constant violation of Tradition 4. There is continuous cross talk and and numerous fist fights have broke out during the meeting. They are demonstrating a hostile environment and should be discredited as a CA group. I feel that it is time for the area to step into this matter and visit this meeting.

Approved response (sent 19th Oct 2012)
Dear Member
Thank you for your email in which you shared your concerns regarding a CA group in your local District.
Our fellowships ‘World Service Manual’ page 14 clarifies the definition of a CA Group.
A meeting is when two or more people gather together to share their experience, strength and hope with each other.
A meeting may call itself a C.A. Group when:
1. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances.
2. It is fully self-supporting.
3. Its primary purpose is to help addicts recover through the Twelve Steps of C.A.
4. It has no outside affiliations.
5. It has no opinion on outside issues.
6. Its public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion.
Based upon the information given to us on the reported Tradition Four violation, we would like to refer you to that very tradition whereas it states, every group “has the right to be wrong”…”except in matters affecting other groups or CA as a whole.”
Many groups around the world have adopted formats that work for that group and/or their locality, allowing healthy diversity and in keeping with our traditions.
In love and service
CA World Service Board of Trustees

The 10am book study is a new addition to the facility and a couple of Sats Ago, the 7am and 12 noon meeting was closed due to a 3rd step feast. being that each meeting is autonomous accept when affecting other meetings or CA why did 3801 INC give the facilitator permision to close 2 meetings for this non approved event. 3801 INC, has no rigt getting involved in CA buisness. I have no problem with change and the 3rd step feast is new to me. I have 11yrs and this is the first time ive seen such a event interupt meetings. Im concerned that this will become a trend!!! And when does the facility have the power to dictate what and when CA meetings are being held and ran? Ive taken this to the District and the Chair and the facilitator of the book study still believes that this is ok. Can you clarify for me so that I know what the correct way to handle this Please.
Response approved (sent 28th October 2012)
Thank you for your question and concerns. While your group’s course of action will ultimately be determined by your group, following is some information that may help.
Please take a moment to read the attached NewsGram article* on page 5 titled “Clubhouses and Cocaine Anonymous.” This article will hopefully clear up the landlord tenant relationship. While clubhouses perform a necessary function for our fellowship, there is no affiliation with our fellowship. The relationship should be strictly tenant, landlord. As such, available meeting times should be negotiated between meetings and landlords. Please be mindful that the business (aka landlord) has no responsibly to C.A. as a whole but your meeting (aka tenant) does. When presenting concerns to your landlord, it may always be prudent to do so while practicing the principles of patience, kindliness, tolerance and love.

Clubhouses and Cocaine Anonymous
First printed in Volume 13, No. 3 (3rd quarter 1999):
By Walter J.
Atlantic South Regional Trustee
Page 8
All over the country (and in other countries now), Cocaine Anonymous meetings are held in a variety of places. Some meetings are held in community rooms at local parks, some are held in meeting rooms at churches, or in hospital cafeterias. Sometimes meetings are held at clubhouses that exist specifically to provide meeting space for Twelve Step groups, and to provide clean and sober people with a place to interact socially. At last year’s C.A. World Service Conference, several referrals from the floor requested guidance and clarification about how C.A. members and groups can be involved with such clubhouses without violating our Twelve Traditions. The World Service Board of Trustees has discussed the issue at length, and this article is an attempt to explain our understanding of the proper relationship between C.A. members and any such clubhouse.
Let’s start by clearly stating that the C.A. group is Cocaine Anonymous. The group has been and remains the most effective vehicle for carrying out our primary purpose – to carry the message of recovery to the still-suffering addict. It is in the group that we recover through working the 12 Steps, learn to coexist in unity by applying the 12 Traditions, and continue to grow spiritually through service employing the 12 Concepts. C.A. members the globe over protect the group as it is the very core of our recovery today, the place where we get sober and grow together, ever more clear-sighted of
Tradition One: “Our common welfare should come first; personal recovery depends upon C.A. unity.”
The group is the C.A. foundation, not only to its members, but to the outside community as well. So any other service entity that is created through a need to serve the C.A. group should handle its affairs in such a way (with respect to C.A.’s 12 Traditions) as to enhance the effectiveness of the group to carry its message, further allowing each member the opportunity for service that may come from any group activity. It is certainly understood that some C.A. members will have a desire to participate in activities outside the C.A. group, such as clubhouses. While there will be those of us that find the C.A. group sufficient to meet our needs, other members have a desire to extend their fellowship beyond group meetings; some in fact seek a C.A. social life. We think it wise for those C.A. members that choose to participate in those outside activities to take extra care to respect the integrity of the C.A. group, ever mindful of the fact that affiliation, whether real or implied, misleads the public, confuses the newcomer, and violates C.A.’s 12 Traditions. What this means is that a C.A. member who might be involved in any way with the operation of a clubhouse should take every opportunity to remind himself and everyone else that he is doing so as an individual, not as a representative of Cocaine Anonymous.
With all that being said, let it be clearly stated that Cocaine Anonymous does not have clubhouses, although members of C.A. are free to engage in whatever outside activity they choose. In accordance with our preamble, C.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution, and neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Nonetheless, when outside activity is engaged in which can easily be mistaken as C.A.-affiliated, such as clubhouses run by C.A. members, caution must be advised. Remember that not only the public, but more importantly, C.A. newcomers may get the misconception that these clubhouses are in fact owned or operated by C.A. Consequently, outside activities such as clubhouses should be
Page 9
designed for those individual members who wish to participate, while the C.A. group should remain unimpeded by the activities of these outside entities. Clearly stated, the C.A. group business should in no way be associated or affiliated with any outside entities, including the clubhouses in which its meetings may be held. The Sixth Tradition states, “A C.A. group ought never endorse, finance, or lend the C.A. name to any related facility or outside enterprise, lest problems of money, property and prestige divert us from our primary purpose.” The tenant/landlord relationship of the C.A. group to the clubhouse should not include the co – mingling of funds. Nor is it appropriate that the landlord dictate structural parameters for the C.A. group. An outside entity deciding operational procedures for a C.A. group or the group servants’ responsibilities would be an example of a serious Tradition violation. Of course, a landlord is free to negotiate rent with any group, or to insist that certain cleanup procedures or other restrictions be respected, but should have no input on how the meeting itself is run.
Remember that the public at large will already see C.A. members heading up these outside activities and may very well view them as C.A. clubhouses. Thus, those outside entities that are so led by and aligned with C.A. members should seriously consider being guided by the 12 Traditions as well, although it is clearly understood that C.A. has no authority to instruct them to do so.
If, after reading this article, you still have questions related to clubhouses or other similar outside entities or operations, I encourage you to contact your Regional Trustee to discuss the matter further, or to send your World Service Delegate to the Conference with your questions or concerns.

It was submitted by () on Wednesday, September 5, 2012 at 14:57:58 ————————————————————————— City: Northampton StateProvince: Northamptonshire AreaRegion: CAUK Subject: Tradition 8 Message: Dear Trustee There has been some controversy at my local DSC regarding a member of the fellowship who is hired to provide a service, that of recording shares at CAUK events. a few members have said that this is out of order and that he should not be able to record shares and make money out of CA events and specifically selling speaker CD’s. I am of the opinion that we do hire services as per tradition 8 and pay for them services when necessary. The grey area here seems to be that the service provider contnues to earn profit, albeit very little, after the event. My feelings on this hot subject is that he provides a service the fellowship benefits from and as a result the message is carried through the selling of the cd’s to many still suffering addicts. I know he earns very little and doesn’t charge for hire or labour, what he has earned has covered fuel etc. I spoke with hi this evening ad he informed me he actually loses money and

still does it out of his love for CA. I was just keen to hear your views in fellowship Richard newly appointed Delegate
Response approved and sent 2nd November 2012
Dear Richard
Thank you for contacting your WSBT and sharing your comments and questions with us regarding this issue.
The hiring of an outside organisation to provide specific services to our fellowship is common and often misunderstood. Our fellowship sells t-shirts at conventions, fundraising events and unity day?s and therefore requires the services of a company to supply us with such merchandise, the principle is the same with recordings and CD sales with the exception that in this case the vendor continues to sell ?their? merchandise as a stock item in ?their? stock inventory without any accountability to CA.
This particular case would, in our opinion, require an agreement of such between the fellowship and the outside company.
There is an issue of allowing an outside organisation to sell items and stock, for their own benefit, that carries the name of Cocaine Anonymous. We should always be mindful that our name belongs to our fellowship and should not be lent to an outside organisation for its own use unless a clear agreement has been reached between the parties involved and those asked to look after our intellectual property and copyrighted materials, in this case our name and our logo.
Our IP and Copyrighted materials are overseen by CAWSO Inc, the WSOB and the World Service Board of Trustees. Any outside organisation wanting to sell items of stock that carries our name and/or logo would need to seek permission from CAWSO by way of a ?Vendor License Agreement?.
At our World Service Conventions we engage the professional services of an outside organisation to record and sell CD?s of speakers and workshops and at our annual World Service Conference we also engage such services to record our conference business. This relationship is clearly defined in an agreement (contract) that allows Cocaine Anonymous to clarify the services required, the conditions of sales to our members, and also allows for us to agree to any requirements from the vendor.
There may also be an issue of affiliation (actual, implied or perceived), when dealing with an outside organisation and this could be magnified when a member is involved with the professional services of the outside organisation. Care should always be taken to separate membership service and professional services in instances like this.
Tradition 8 is more directed toward the fellowship directly employing or hiring members, not companies, to carry out work and getting paid by the Fellowship for the specific task at hand.

City: Jackson
StateProvince: TN
AreaRegion: Tennessee
Subject: Donations, Grant Money
Message: The K.I.S.S. group of CA in Jackson,TN has been divided over accepting donations or grant monies. Also, there is contraversy about selling food or other fund raising activies to help facilitate the needs of the group. We know about and discuss the 7th Traditions but some of the members say there are some exceptions to the rule.
First, the State of TN has a grant to be used for Alcohol and Drugs programs. After giving out several thousands to other Drug and Alcohol facilities, there is $480,000 left. These monies must be used or given back to the State. Some members of the group want to obtain some of that money to be used to buy a building to be used as our meeting place. Other members say that some of members –on their own, can receive that money and open up their own halfway house, which must be outside of the group. And still others say that we can’t accept any money from anywhere and that our group must be fully self supporting through our own contributions.
Second, some groups are doing some fundraising to ease the burden of the group. Some have dances,some sell raffles ticket, or cook and sell dinners and etc.
Will you please give us all the information you have about when and how to accept donations
Page 12
and having fundraisers? Thank you in advance for the information as we want to dispell all rumors within the group.

IN-CONFERENCE REFFERRALS TO BE ADDRESSED:
• Referral #5817
• Our Area bylaws conflict with 12 Concepts and 12 Traditions. How can we as an Area conduct our business without violating 12 Concepts and 12 Traditions if our Area Service Board does not want to recognize this problem and continuously state that our bylaws supercede the 12 Concepts and 12 Traditions. Some of us understand that any Area bylaws should be formed under 12 Concepts and 12 Traditions and bylaws should not conflict with such, as our ASB goes against this.

Are there any issues regarding the use of youtube as a media to publish public service announcements on their own? If there are no issues are there any guideline? Can we use if locally?
Response to #7091
Thank you for your inquiry to the use of a PSA (Public Service Announcement) via the You Tube website.
The first distinction we should clarify , is the PSA you are referring to in the referral a conference approved PSA (Public Service Announcement) or a non conference approved?
Approved Conference PSA
The conference approved PSAs are designed and approved for Public distribution and viewing. The WSBOT see no challenges to uploading them to the You Tube website. Please take caution that the person uploading the video may be identified and precautions to ensure anonymity should be taken. There are no clear directions currently in the World Service Guidelines for the proper use of this medium. We will forward your referral to the Public Information Committee for future work.
Non Approved Conference PSA (Public Service Announcement) or Any other type of Video Please refer to the paragraph below from the World Service IT Guidelines . This paragraph can be found on page 3. To summarize we suggest that members only use conference approved PSA.
“Social networking, blogging, micro-blogging, and other tools have emerged as daily communication methods for individual members. When using these tools, we need always be mindful to not use the C.A. logo, Cocaine Anonymous name, or other registered trademarks of C.A. (e.g., “C.A.”, “Hope, Faith and Courage”, “We’re Here and We’re Free”, etc.) and to be respectful of anonymity and other spiritual principles in accordance with the Twelve Traditions of C.A. It is further suggested that members refrain from posting on any of the tools mentioned above any photos and/or videos that identify any activity, entity or person as being associated with Cocaine Anonymous.”
