Again this year, the ISO of COSA is carrying the message by organizing the virtual convention in February and the in-person convention in June. Our members convene and share recovery through speakers in long-time recovery, workshop presenters on tools of the program, and panel speakers on topics near and dear to the hearts of recovering COSAs. COSA is an anonymous, international Twelve Step recovery program for those whose lives have been affected by compulsive sexual behavior. The COSA fellowship is steadfastly autonomous; it is not affiliated with any other organizations. We are also self-supporting, sustained entirely by voluntary donations of time and money from our members.
