About the Service Support Weekend (SSW)

The SSW is an EAI-sponsored event that is held every other year in November. It is planned by the members of the SSW Planning Committee with support from the EAI Board, EAI Office Committee and many FA members willing to do service.

The purpose of the SSW is to come together and share about Abstinence, Gratitude, and SERVICE. This weekend helps FA members throughout the world stay connected, continue to grow in our recovery, and practice passing on the message of recovery to the newcomer by focusing on the tool of Service.
