What Is Intergroup?
An Intergroup, sometimes called a Community Service Group (CSG), is made up of Group Service Representatives (GSRs) from local meetings and CoDA members from the local Fellowship.
Some things that an Intergroup might do are:
- Manage finances including the collection of a percentage of money received from the meetings’ 7th tradition donations to use to provide funds for acquiring literature, running social events, and office-type expenses
- Obtain CoDA Conference Approved literature for purchase by meetings and individuals
- Develop and maintain a website
- Issue resolution between and among meetings
- Plan and host events and function
- Help meetings get started by offering things like starter packs of literature, suggestions on signage and advertising of new meetings, and other items as requested
We meet in January, March, May, July, September, and November.
Group Service Representatives (GSRs) act as liaison between their meeting and the Tucson CoDA Intergroup, providing information in both directions. The links below are helpful tools for GSRs and all members of the fellowship.
GSRs are chosen by their meeting group via an informed group conscience of the group they represent. Each GSR (and preferably an alternate) is selected by any method deemed appropriate by their group.
Healthy meetings rotate volunteers in various meeting service roles, including GSRs. Their term is usually 1-2 years, but is also determined by group conscience of each independent meeting.
A note to Tucson CoDA fellows:
Anyone in the CoDA fellowship is welcome to attend TCI meetings!
CoDA Group Service Representatives serving intergroup are committed to ensuring that anyone suffering from codependency receives the best information we offer, be it workshops, literature, or sponsorship.
We hold business meetings to plan CoDA-related workshops and events to help those seeking healthy relationships.
Please check out our new Guidelines, Announcements, Events, and In-Person and Zoom meetings on this website. We hope to see you at one of our TCI meetings!
