Meetings like NA or AA brings awareness to those that does not understand addiction and what it means to be an addict. It is very easy to say “why can’t get just stop?”. If they could

I recently attended an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting in a comfortable house in Santa Monica‚ California. The room was occupied by approximately 70 attendees‚ and even more sitting on the outside porch. The focus of this particular day’s meeting was step six of the 12-step program.

Following the definition and interpretation of the sixth step‚ the main speaker of the

New Perspectives #1 The event that I decided to attend was the Multicultural Student Union meeting on Wednesday April 12th. At the beginning of the event we played an introductory game.

After that speaker left we got

school board meetings are held to discuss different issues within the community and schools. The school board members discuss items such as budget‚ employee contracts‚ academic services‚ school choice‚ teacher and student conduct‚ etc. Locally elected school board members are responsible for discussing and voting towards the decisions that impact educators‚ students‚ and our community.

However‚ perhaps the most enlightening agenda on the staff meeting list at my first staff meeting was listed as outcomes/paperwork. This agenda was a novel encounter for me‚ because I had never realized before the impact that paperwork‚ and how it is filled out‚ has on everything from funding to projections on future housing requirements. And on that note‚ until now‚ I did not realize how salient the fact is that the YMCA is a non-profit organization‚ and how it relies on the kindness from others

This week‚ on Tuesday‚ I attended an Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A.) meeting. The group of people who went to it was very diverse‚ of various ages‚ backgrounds‚ levels of recovery‚ experiences‚ but with one goal in common: to get sober for life (live a life alcohol-free) by realizing that there is something greater than themselves and they are not in control of themselves. Truly‚ the program seems to be a complex one that requires time (to go from step to step) and guidance from a sponsor that each attendee
