I wanted to send my outreach tip early. The above can be effective in 12 Step work by letting those in need know that they are not alone. By providing meeting information and encouraging attendance at a Naranon meeting. The decision to have this service is within the groups to support. The line/answering service should respect your anonymity as a volunteer to this service. Members names and personal phone numbers should not be given out. There should be a number established that is not a personal number and volunteers will be willing to accept phone calls. If you are in an area where there are a lot of meetings, a suggestion is that maybe one group starts this and emails the secretaries of the other groups to see if there are any volunteers. It may be harder where there are less meetings and not a lot of Naranon members willing to do this. You might be in a state where there are only a handful of meetings, establishing an information line, might have to,work where the meeting who wants to establish this, contact the secretaries of the other meetings to see if there would be the volunteers needed. This type of outreach may need to be put on hold. Will there is a will there is a way.
Wishing everyone a safe and happy Holiday weekend.
