12th Step Service Opportunities
The San Diego County CoDA Community has several 12th Step Service Opportunities available:
Regardless of what step you may be working, there are 12th Step opportunities within our community.
If you are ready to do twelfth step service work, please consider service to the San Diego County CoDA Community. The Community supports the individual CoDA meetings in San Diego County by providing some of the following:
Monthly printed and emailed version of the newsletter
This web site
Regularly scheduled activities
Super Seminar Saturdays, a quarterly event
Bulk literature and token sales
These benefits happen because someone has stepped forward to give of their time, knowing that service is part of recovery.
There is fellowship and a sense of fulfillment that comes from making an appreciable contribution to something outside of oneself. Some offices, or positions, take less time than others, but become tailored to the needs of the person filling the position.
Opportunity for Twelfth Step work is knocking at your door. Will you answer it?
