Suggestions for Zoom Meetings

Avoid
physical contact
Anonymity is the Spiritual Foundation of the
Gamblers Anonymous Program. While you are free to tell anyone of
your membership you do not know if that may cause harm to another.
It is especially important in this time when we are virtually
entering each other’s homes to be mindful of who else may be in and
around you.
·
Virtual backgrounds cause shadowing and strange light effects, please
refrain from using them whenever possible.
·
If you must move around,
please
turn off
your video screen. We would not
walk around or be distracting in a regular setting .
Most of GA regular guidelines and practices apply such as:
·
Please refrain from using dollar amounts in your therapy
·
No borrowing or lending of money to other GA members
·
Do not mention crimes you may still be prosecuted for
If we are
to recover, we must feel free to say what is in our minds and
hearts.
Therefore, who
you see here, what you hear here , when you leave here ,
let it stay here .”
Some
meeting rooms have scheduled dial-in meetings - see the meeting list
below for that detail.
GA ISO is also expanding dial-in meeting to additional nights - those details
are now on the member page
Please continue to refer to this page & the Member page in the
meantime
