NorCal H&I Committee Meetings

The NorCal H&I Committee is the final decision-making body of the Northern California Hospital and Institution Committee and is comprised of Area Chairs, Regional Chairs, Committee Chairs, and Institution & IVSS Coordinators. Decisions of the NorCal Committee represent the collective Group Conscience of the A.A. Groups in Northern California. The Committee conducts hybrid meetings four times a year to inform the Fellowship of our activities, to review issues and concerns from the areas, and to make decisions for the committee. The NorCal Committee elects the NorCal Chair and the Finance Committee members and approves the Committee Chair/Officer nominations submitted by the NorCal Chair and ratifies the annual budget.
