The Southern California
Intergroup of Nicotine Anonymous would like to inform you that our correct address is:
SCINA
19744 Beach Boulevard, #247
Huntington Beach, CA 92648
We wanted to remind you
of our activities and let you know that your Intergroup provides several valuable services.
We provide an 800 Number
for people who are looking for information about the Fellowship. The line is manned by volunteers seven days a week. If someone
calls in looking for information a volunteer will call them back and give them the meeting information in their area.
We perform various Public
Outreach Projects in order to carry out our mission to get the word out about our program. These projects include our “Carry
the Message Day”, our Business Card Holder program at member’s doctor’s offices, and flyers and mailings
to individuals and groups. If you need a flyer for your area please let us know.
The Intergroup holds
monthly meetings at which we provide Literature, Chips, and Books for sale to the Groups. In addition, we publish an updated
Meeting List on a monthly basis which is also available at our meeting. Each month we complete a mailing to the groups which
at a minimum includes our Financial Statement, the minutes of our meeting and a meeting schedule.
We conduct as many Panels
at Hospitals and Institutions as we are asked to do. Recently we have been very successful at working with the Kaiser organization
in sending panels to their Smoking Cessation Programs in our area.
Each year we conduct
several events which we are very proud of. This year these will include our Fullerton Group’s Holiday Dinner in January,
a Marathon Meeting in November, the Retreat in June and our Annual Picnic in September.
For the last several
years we have adopted the policy of suggesting to the groups in our area that they send in their donations directly to
the Intergroup. The Intergroup’s policy is to maintain a prudent reserve of $500 plus any committed known expenses
and then forward any excess funds to World Services on a Monthly Basis. Your donations are needed and very much appreciated.
We are looking forward to expanding our Public Outreach efforts to make sure we as a group are carrying the message to practicing
addicts. (This suggestion for handling your donations is made within the spirit of Tradition Four. “Each group should
be autonomous except in matters affecting other groups or Nicotine Anonymous as a whole.”)
We want to take this
opportunity to invite you to attend one of our monthly meetings. As an all volunteer organization we value the involvement
of each individual.
