2024 Summer Convention - "It Takes Heart"

The 2024 Convention Program Committee welcomes proposals for workshops AND featured speakers to be presented at our annual convention which will be held on May 31, June 1 and June 2, 2024 in Columbus, Ohio. Guidelines for workshop and speaker topics: Topics should be directly related to the COSA program of recovery including working the Twelve Steps, applying the Twelve Traditions and the Twelve Concepts, practicing program principles in our lives and our groups and carrying the message to other COSAs. The presenter should have sufficient program experience and COSA sobriety to be able to share openly and honestly about his/her/their own experience, strength, and hope in recovery. Presentations should be planned for 75 minutes, including time for questions and discussion. Outside issues are not appropriate. Avoid opinions or discussions of therapy, medicine, religion, or other similar topics. Personal religious beliefs and convictions are valid, but are not appropriate for sharing in the workshop setting. Recommendation of literature other than COSA publications should be avoided. All information in this application is kept strictly confidential. A general release must be signed by every workshop presenter.
