Central Office Oversight Committee News

Since the Vancouver International Conference the COOC has met about every six weeks. Major issues have included the following: exploring areas of SA service such as translations of our literature and outreach to imprisoned or isolated SAs; organizing a special meeting at the next conference to encourage such service opportunities; utilizing our COOC replacement process following the resignation of Harry B. from the Northwest region; maintaining our literature stocks and considering handling audio tapes of talks and conferences; and assisting the Long Island SA Conference in publicizing the conference. We also review the financial well-being of our Central Office and concerns of the staff.

The COOC is the interim solution to managing our SA affairs until a General Service Board structure is in place. Individual COOC members also assist with correspondence and calls to the Central Office, serve as liaison to the Essay, the CO operations staff and the General Service Board Committee, and cooperate with other special SA projects. Sexaholics interested or concerned about such areas are urged to contact any COOC member: Betsy T. (Washington, DC), Larry M. and James M. (New York), David M. (Nashville), Sylvia J. (Oklahoma City), Jim O. (Chicago area), Dan N. (San Diego), Dave B. (Los Angeles) or Harry B. (Portland, OR).
