Hospital & Institution Group Representatives

H&I Group Representatives are the link between the H&I Committee and individual A.A. groups in San Francisco.

There are currently 563 weekly meetings in San Francisco, and we’d like you to help us spread the word.

We recommend that each group elect an H&I rep to fill a two-year term. It’s suggested that the rep have at least two years of sobriety. Prior H&I volunteer experience is not required.

The rep then attends our monthly H&I Rep business meeting on the odd months of the year on the third Saturday. See the Events page for specific dates.

We meet at the Mission Fellowship, 2900 24th St. (x Florida St.), San Francisco, on the third Saturday of each month (excepting December) at 10:00 am.
