The EAI 12th Step Committee helps members carry the message of recovery to food addicts

The 12th Step Committee helps members carry the message of recovery to food addicts and provides resources that help members practice the principles of the 12 Steps in all affairs. The committee provides a video and document to help newcomers understand what the Eastern Area Intergroup is, how EAI fits within FA, what it does/how it serves, and how they can get involved. It welcomes new meeting fellowships into the Eastern Area Intergroup (EAI). The committee hosts Twelfth Step Gatherings to help foster living the 12th Step. It provides education and assistance to fellowships for performing 12th Step Calls with prospective members and home meetings for FA members. It also helps coordinate Thank-A-Thons. All are welcome!

EAI 12th Step Informal Fellowship Gathering 

As a way to offer support and provide another opportunity for service, the EAI 12th Step Committee will be hosting another Informal Fellowship Gathering. In these gatherings, one of our committee members will moderate to introduce a topic for discussion and then will introduce speakers who will each share their experience before opening it up to sharing from anyone who has 90 days of abstinence and who’s working with an FA sponsor. Each session will last one hour.

EAI Orientation

Have you heard about "EAI" at your monthly business meeting but not sure what it's all about? EAI stands for Eastern Area Intergroup, and it is a larger service body with the purpose of supporting meetings throughout a large geographical area. Now you can learn about how EAI can help your meeting by watching an Orientation Video or reading through an EAI Newcomer Orientation Guide. The orientation includes an overview of EAI, the services it provides, its committees, and ways that FA members can get involved in Intergroup.
