AA Treatment Committee members coordinate sharing the message of recovery with alcoholics in treatment centers by arranging meetings, providing literature, connecting patients to local groups and working with facility staff. Their core job involves setting up AA meetings, organizing speakers, managing literature and working with the BTG Coordinator to encourage patients to seek further involvement with the AA community. Committee members operate under the instruction and guidance of the Treatment Coordinator.

Coordinate Activities: Organize AA members and groups to provide speakers and support for these meetings.
Provide Literature: Manage the purchase and distribution of AA books and pamphlets for treatment settings.
Bridge the Gap: Set up “temporary contacts” or “Bridge the Gap” programs to connect patients with local AA groups before they leave treatment
