District 52 Guidelines & Policies
section 4.5. Hospitals and Institutions
The H&I committee operates as a
separate entity, serving institutions within the district.


Atascadero State Mental Hospital |
The Santa Barbara North
County H&I Committee is dedicated to providing AA meetings and literature to
those confined to hospitals, jails, prisons and other facilities that
request support from Alcoholics Anonymous. We currently serve 5 facilities
(Santa Maria Juvenile Detention Facility, Federal Corrections Institution - Lompoc, Federal Prison Camp -
Lompoc, Atascadero State Mental Hospital, and Bridgehouse Homeless Shelter -
Lompoc) with approximately 31 panels/meetings per month.
We share our experience, strength, and hope in harmony with the 5th Tradition
and are not affiliated with these facilities in accordance with the 9th
Tradition. |
The Santa Barbara North County H&I Committee meets on the Third
Thursday of every month at 5:30PM at the Valley of the Flowers Half Century Club,
341 N. N St. Lompoc.

We strongly encourage you to attend our monthly meetings to find out how to qualify
for participation in any of these commitments. We are always looking for
responsible AA members who are willing to carry the message to the suffering
alcoholic. |

Federal Corrections Institution Lompoc |

Santa Maria Juvenile Detention Facility |
Santa Barbara North County H&I (SBNCHIC)
committee is supported by direct A.A. member donations and contributions
from A.A. meeting groups through a portion of their 7th Tradition
collections or passing the “H&I Can”. In addition to taking meetings into
hospitals and institutions, the H&I committee provides A.A. approved
literature to these facilities. |
Because of the special nature of some of the institutions which
are served by H&I, it may be necessary for individuals to be granted clearance
by the facility before attending their meetings. This process of qualification
is particularly true of local jails, state prisons and federal penitentiaries. Minimum
sobriety requirements may apply as well.
H&I is always available for other hospitals and institutions where the AA
program would be beneficial. We ask the public and AA members to advise us of
any opportunities to be of service.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HOSPITALS & INSTITUTIONS INTERGROUP
The Southern California H&I Intergroup is comprised
of delegates from the Hospital and Institution committees, and liaisons from
General Service Areas, within Southern California. Their sole purpose is to
establish a stronger unity between these H&I committees and General Service
Areas by the exchange of their experience, strength and hope, that they may
be better able to carry out H&I's primary purpose of carrying the A.A.
message to those confined in hospitals, jails and prisons.
