Moderator's Guide

To help guide moderators through New Beginnings phone meetings each week here is an outline of how the meeting and reading has been run.

Opening - (Reading is all done by moderator)

At the end of opening ask everyone to introduce themselves

1st reading choose one of the following - The Problem, What is SAA or Who we are.

Please ask for someone to read this reading if no volunteers then the moderator reads.

2nd ask someone to read the 12 Steps

3rd Reading - Choose one of the following: On Abstinence, Our Solution or How We Live.

Please ask for someone to read this reading if no volunteers then the moderator reads.

Then ask for a topic for discussion. If no topic then do the reading for the day from Voices in Recovery.

At about 3 to 5 mins to the end of the hour, ask for any last shares then read the closing document.
