Area 34 Standing Service Committees

Area 34 standing service committee’s meet regularly to coordinate the efforts of A.A. volunteer’s who are carrying A.A.’s message of hope. Each committee is part of A.A.’s great whole who’s primary purpose is to carry the message to the Alcoholic who still suffers. The Area Assembly expands to local community District Committee’s and individual groups throughout Western Michigan. 

Many newcomers first hear about A.A.’s life saving message through the volunteer work of these A.A. volunteer’s. 

If you are an A.A. MEMBER who would like get involved in SERVICE with Area 34, please contact any one of these committee’s. 

We also encourage District volunteers to connect with their respective counterpart to keep us united! 

Western Michigan Alcoholics Anonymous encompasses the entire west coast of Lake Michigan, from the Indiana state line to the Eastern portion of the Michigan Upper Peninsula at the Canadian boarder. 

Thanks to technology, some service committees can attend to A.A. business by meeting virtually.
