Upstate SC Intergroup Sex Addicts Anonymous

What is Intergroup?

General Information about the Upstate South Carolina Intergroup of SAA

• The Upstate SC Intergroup of SAA is a fellowship of local meetings that exists primarily to reach out to sex addicts in Upstate South Carolina. It also supports individual groups in a variety of ways (see below) and supports the efforts of the ISO (International Service Organization of SAA). The Intergroup is made up of SAA members from local meetings.
• 
  
• Local meetings participate in Intergroup through electing an Intergroup Representative who will commit to attending monthly Intergroup meetings. Intergroup Reps serve their local meetings by seeking their group’s conscience on local issues and sharing that group conscience to the Intergroup when appropriate. Reps also bring information from Intergroup back to their local groups. Intergroup Reps can also transmit excess 7th Tradition funds from the local group to Intergroup at the monthly Intergroup meeting.
• 
  
• The general purpose of Intergroup is to pool the efforts of groups to more effectively reach out to sex addicts. Some of the ways Intergroup does this is by:
• 
  

• Exchanging meeting information and maintaining a local area meeting list to provide more options for recovery
• Distributing meeting lists and website link to area therapists and others who might be in contact with struggling sex addicts
• Maintaining a local area website (www.upstatescsaa.org) and phone line 864-400-2784
• Planning local events such as Circle or Step Workshops
• Pooling excess group funds to more effectively reach out to sex addicts
• Donating a portion of 7th Tradition funds to ISO
• Maintaining operational committees to address issues and to organize outreach efforts
• Providing a forum where groups can access the collective wisdom and experience of many groups
• Discussing and distributing information about fellowship-wide issues
• Providing an opportunity for SAA members to make a service commitment outside of their weekly meetings

Every individual meeting is invited to elect and send Intergroup Representatives to represent the meeting at Intergroup. If your group is not currently represented at Intergroup, we invite you to send a representative selected by your group conscience. However, all SAA members are welcome to attend whether representing a meeting or not.
