In response to questions from members, we announce that SA is officially an exempt, non-profit organization in the same category (code 573) as Alcoholics Anonymous. This holds true for all of 1982 and part of 1981. We are using the following notice to SA members in compliance with our Seventh Tradition:

• IN SA, WE AS INDIVIDUALS ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR OWN RECOVERY AND SUPPORT OUR OWN RECOVERY. Member and group contributions are the only source we have for printing, postage, and telephone expenses. Contributions are tax deductible per IRS letter 1045(DO) (6-77), dated March 2, 1982, Los Angeles.
