EAI Service Group Support
The Service Group Support Committee supports the work of Local Service Groups in EAI. A Local Service Group consists of two or more FA members from more than one FA meeting group who combine resources to do service for FA in their area. In situations requiring a formal decision, only members with at least 90 days of continuous abstinence in FA who are working with an FA sponsor shall have a voice and a vote at local service group meetings.

Eastern Area Intergroup Local Service Group Financial Aid Application
Eastern Area Intergroup supports local service groups that perform the public information, 12 Step, Office, Connection, and Teens & Twenties work defined by the respective World Service and intergroup committees in their areas. Expenses incurred from this work are normally funded by FA meetings. Since FA members may be doing these services in an area without a local meeting or where financial resources are not available, EAI is offering limited financial reimbursement to support these local service group efforts. Hence, the message of FA is spread and the fellowship strengthened in all areas, even when there are no established FA meetings in the area. The goal of these funds is to inspire and kickstart the presence and strength of FA recovery, rather than be a continual or indefinite funding source for an area.
An LSG may apply for up to $400 in a fiscal year. This amount is not guaranteed. Approval is contingent upon several factors including available funds, number of requests, and the proposed service project.
