PI/CPC Working Group

PI and CPC Workbooks are freely available from aa.org

The PI/CPC Working Group brings together AA members committed to carrying the message of recovery into the public square. Current and past Public Information and Cooperation with the Professional Community chairs, service volunteers, and interested AA and Al-Anon members all participate. The only requirement is a desire to carry the message.
The PI/CPC Working Group moderates the PI/CPC Category in the TIAA Forum, where members share outreach ideas and coordinate efforts. PI committees reach the general public through schools, media, and digital materials. CPC committees educate professionals — healthcare providers, courts, educators, and employers — about what AA is and what it offers. GSO supports both through workbooks, templates, and the About A.A. newsletter. For more information, contact picpceastbay@gmail.com.

Instructions for Completing this Form

Name:

The name you use here is not verified and only used to control for spam and bot submissions. It will not be tied to your account. You can create and edit a profile disclosing the account name and information you wish to expose to the community (not publicly visible outside the forum) when and after you join.

Email:

Email where the invitation to join will be sent. This will also become a secondary way of logging in or recovering your password. We recommend a personal email address (e.g. your_name@example.com) instead of a “positional” email address (e.g. webmaster@your_intergroup.org) unless you intend for you membership to rotate with the person holding the position in the future. This email address can be changed after you join if you wish to change it by editing your profile information.

Affirmation:

By the group conscience of the members, this forum is only open to members of AA and those non-members of AA supporting AA services (e.g. Intergroup offices, AA service structure, etc.).

Topic Interests:

If you are interested in conversations in more than one  technical topic area (e.g. web sites, answering services, virtual meetings, etc.) or have a general curiosity about AA discussions in general (e.g. topics above and beyond technology like committees and group dynamics), you would probably want to select the default “General” option.

If your primary interest is in Archives only, you probably want to select the “Archives” option. Note that with either option, you will still have access to all topics on the forum but with the “Archives” option, your “home screen” will automatically place you in the “Archives” category where most of those conversations happen.
