Times, Locations, and What We Do

BTG (Bridging the Gap) is a standing general service committee that bridges the gap between release from a locked facility, rehab or hospital and the alcoholic's first AA meeting on the outside. 

CNCA (California Northern Coastal Area) runs from Monterey to the Oregon border along the coast.  There are 93 areas in the US and Canada. DCM’s (district committee members), DCMC’s (district committee member chairs), area officers, and standing committees meet monthly at the Community Center in Petaluma. Each Area selects a delegate that represents us annually at the General Service Conference in New York. This is how the group’s voice is heard. CNCA has a website: www.cnca06.org.

District 15 publishes the meeting directory and maintains the website.  The district is our liaison to CNCA, and hence to GSO in New York.  District 15 is one of 22 general service districts including two Spanish language districts in the CNCA.
