Hospitals, Institutions and Prisons (HIP)
Awareness Day Challenge
We challenge each D.A. meeting to reach out
to one Hospital, Institution, or Prison!
Dear Fellow Debtors Anonymous (D.A.) Member: If you have interest in carrying the lifesaving message of D.A. into areas of your community where it is needed, the link below to our “HIP Starter Kit” below has the information on taking your first steps.
Many members like you have added joy and depth to their program by working with debtors who do not have the opportunity to attend regular meetings because they are confined within hospitals, institutions, and prison systems.
The D.A. World Service Conference (WSC) Committee for Hospitals, Institutions, and Prisons (HIP) operates in service to our fellowship as a whole according to our guiding spiritual principle: that in or out of an institution, every debtor is a person of worth and dignity, deserving of recovery should he or she desire it.
In the pages in our H.I.P. Starter Kit below, you can find “WHY” to this service.
Talk to your GSR today!
Use the HIP Toolkit on the D.A. Webpage as a resource:
Thank you all!
WSC H.I.P. Committee
