Have you signed up for the Convention yet?


The convention planners are hard at work finding terrific speakers for the September 23-25 event this fall in Arizona. The Sunday speaker will be Trisha W. from San Bernardino, Cal. Trisha has been in the program since 1971. She will tell her story, and in doing so, tell the story of the development of the EA program in California. In 1971 EA had not reached California. There were Neurotics Anonymous and Emotional Health Anonymous (EHA). After being introduced to the AA program (but not being an alcoholic), she went looking for a program for people with emotional problems. Eventually she discovered EHA, which was being directed locally by a long-time AA person. She participated in building the EHA program within the guidelines & traditions of AA, writing some pamphlets and creating a "Big Book" for the meetings. She later discovered EA on a visit to Indiana and became very excited about it, bringing it back to California and participating most actively in its California development, in both Southern and Northern California. Trisha will share her story - be sure to register before the end of August for the early-bird discount!
