Description

Do you care about the quality of your OA group? Let's "get grounded in groups" in this episode of Inside OA!

Take a few notes as host Meg M. interviews Bruce from Ottawa, Canada. Bruce is a former OA trustee who has been abstinent in OA since April 2005 and who has also served at the intergroup and region levels. Bruce discusses the importance of the group in personal recovery and the questions a group can reflect on to determine whether "its message to the compulsive overeater who still suffers" (Tradition Five) and to newcomers is truly one of hope, strength, and recovery through OA's Twelve Steps.
