Volusia County Intergroup AA Service Committees

and other local AA Service Opportunities



The Volusia County Intergroup has four important committees which service our community and Intergroup. They are Archives, Finance, Group Relations and Website.

We also periodically setup ad-hoc or special committees to accomplish the necessary tasks assumed by Intergroup. Their descriptions and definitions are defined at the time of their inception.

Each committee's primary purpose is to carry the message to the still suffering alcoholic, but the three active committees also have specific definitions as shown on the following pages:


12 Step

Office Volunteers
Office volunteers answer the phone and sell merchandise. They do not 12-step callers.

Phone Army
This is a term used to describe a group of volunteers who answer the AA Hotline when the office is closed. Calls to the Hotline are routed to their home or cell. Phone Army volunteers don’t 12-step callers; they dispatch a help call to someone on the 12th Stepper list and provide general info regarding meeting locations, etc.

12 Steppers
This is a term used to describe a group of volunteers who are willing to help another alcoholic. 12 Steppers are always contacted by Volusia County Intergroup or phone army volunteers.

The names and phone numbers of all Volunteers are maintained by Volusia County Intergroup. All volunteers are instructed to never, under any circumstances, disclose to anyone, information about people on the volunteer list. 

Please complete the 12 step sign-up sheet and fax to Intergroup at 386-756-3573, or mail to: Volusia County Intergroup, 345 Beville Road, Suite 102, South Daytona, FL   32119.
