           In 2007 the General Service Conference recommended that the trustees’ Committee on Public Information seek out video/digital submissions from the Fellowship which could possibly be compiled and included in a video designed to carry the A.A. message of recovery to young people in high school and college settings.

 

A.A. is looking for submissions that:

· Are up to seven minutes in length maximum.  No minimum time requirement.

· Briefly describe what it was like, what happened and what it is like now.

· Touch on feelings, attitudes and behaviors; allowing the alcoholic to identify.

· Share a simple and honest message of recovery.

· Focus on the experience of getting sober between the ages of 12 and 25.

· Are upbeat and share about having fun in sobriety.

· Reinforce A.A.’s Twelve traditions-

· Stick to A.A.’s primary purpose.

· Try not to reference popular fads or fashions that may quickly date the piece.

· Look for ways to use modern technology, including animation, to make your message attractive
