​DISTRICT REPRESENTATIVES

The District Representative (DR) is usually any incoming, outgoing, or active past Group Representative who is willing to represent the District at Area World Service Committee (AWSC) meetings and Area Assembles. He/she should have knowledge of Al-Anon traditions and concepts as well as how they are applied. The District Representative meets and/or communicates with Group Representatives in his/her district to provide the GRs with information from the AWSC, encourage members’ subscription to the Forum, listen to group concerns, and take any questions or concerns to the AWSC meetings. He/she maintains an email group list to send out messages and announcements to GRs within the District. Also, the DR may choose to offer an orientation meeting for new GRs upon rotation. The DR is elected by the District’s GRs.
