OA’s newest interactive PDF can help service bodies welcome newcomers into a relaxed and inviting virtual setting and acquaint them with aspects of the OA program. The Virtual Welcome Room interactive PDF and its supporting document, Virtual Welcome Room Procedure, are now available in the Document Library. Together, they can help us give memorable guided tours of the OA resources most relevant to the newcomer, including:
- the Twelve Steps
- the Twelve Traditions
- the Twelve Concepts of OA Service
- OA literature
- the OA Quiz
- Find a Meeting
- the OA Promise and Responsibility Pledge
- OA regions
The Virtual Welcome Room was developed over a number of years by three successive Public Information and Professional Outreach (PIPO) Committees of World Service Business Conference (WSBC). Committee members spent many hours creating this design and persevered in spite of significant technical challenges and setbacks. As the project progressed, “keeping it simple” emerged as a great lesson of the endeavor and resulted in a Document Library asset that all service bodies can now use with ease. Thank you to the many WSBC delegates who contributed for your service!
