NorCal DA GSRs
General Service Representatives

What does a GSR do?

A General Service Representative's main functions are to carry information from the World Service Office to local meetings and vice versa, attend the annual D.A. World Service Conference and work on Conference committees.

Visit the next Northern California GSR meeting and find out about the D.A. Meditations Book, outreach to Spanish speaking communities, the Hospitals and Prisons committee and the Business Debtors Anonymous subcommittee.

Meetings are held on the second Saturday of each month from 10:15 AM to 12:00 noon at the San Francisco Public Library Main Branch in the third floor conference room.

Meeting Conference Call

The NorCal DA GSR group agreed to add conference call capability to our monthly GSR meeting. We are hoping this will allow more GSRs, DA members considering becoming a GSR, or any interested DA member from Northern California to participate in our monthly meeting. We will still meet in the SF library, but have a speaker phone to connect into the conference call and allow callers to participate in the GSR meeting.

To participate may call: 712-432-0180 and enter access code: '758367#' to join the meeting (which is held the second Saturday of each month from 10:15 am to noon). Although the conference is free, please note that long distance charges from your phone provider will apply.
