Greetings from all of us in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Our group is doing well. Lately we average 8-12 each meeting and slowly growing. For me, personally, it was a door out of hell.

…I would like to take this opportunity to let you know how we are faring in San Diego county. In the seven months that I have been associated with SA, I have witnessed incredible growth, in our numbers as well as our sobriety. One of our largest meetings (Friday Night Men’s) recently had to change locations to accommodate its growth.
It continues to be exciting here in Middle Tennessee watching the growth of SA. We are now up to 17 meetings per week, which does not include some of the meetings in locations outside the city limits of Nashville.

The Providence, RI, group continues to thrive and has a consistent six to eight members in attendance every week.…
Since, to our knowledge, S-Anon International Family Groups has no publication of its own, we hope it might be proper to address a few comments and a question to our brother/sister organization’s publication ESSAY.
Recovery Continues is now available for eight dollars plus postage and handling. The following is the contents of this 97-page book:
Speaking for myself, I am against hugging in SA almost completely. About the only time I have ever initiated a hug in my years in SA was a few times after a person had given a very intense and difficult, for them, First Step to the group. But, even in such a case, I would rather not hug if it is a woman member (I’m male).…
“Dear Friends! May the Hope and Joy of Recovery be with you in the U.S.A. as it is here in Hochstenbach near Bonn.”
