- Speak and/or chair meetings on a regular basis.
- Hear 5th steps.
- Take clients to meetings.
- Supervise clients on outings.
Our next Volunteer Orientation is Sunday, January 15 from 2:30 until 4:00 p.m. For more information and to register for the orientation, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Elyce Reaves at (901) 521-1131 ext. 204 or email elyce.reaves@serenityrecovery.org.
In addition to a yearly TB screening, volunteers also need to read, fill out and sign the following: Volunteer Policy, Confidentiality Statement, Statement of Understanding.
Bill W.(the co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous) recognized that the recurring desire to drink disappears when on alcoholic works with another. This understanding became a basic principle of the new society. (“The Best of Bill,” page 84)
