Do You Need Help?

If you would like to speak to someone now
please call the 24 hour hotline at 863-687-9275.

Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share their
experience, strength and hope with each other that they may
solve their common problem and help others to recover from
alcoholism.

The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking.
There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-
supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does
not wish to engage in any controversy, neither endorses nor
opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and
help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

What is “District”?

District 3 is a geographical division within an Area 15 that provides an opportunity for groups in that Polk, Hardee, and Highlands counties to have a voice in matters affecting all groups and A.A. as a whole.

Each District has a District Committee that is made up of representatives from its many A.A. groups. These representatives are called General Service Representatives (G.S.R.s). Each group may elect a G.S.R. who will attend the District meetings and Area assemblies in order to represent their group and vote their group’s conscience.

The District Committee elects a representative — a District Committee Member (D.C.M.), who is an experienced G.S.R., to serve as an essential link between the group G.S.R. and the Area Delegate. As a member of the area committee, the D.C.M. is able to pass on the District’s thinking to the delegate and the committee.
