Our District
At District 23, we serve as a vital link between AA groups in Lake Oswego, Lake Grove, Tualatin, and West Linn, and the broader AA fellowship. Our goal is to ensure that all G.S.R.s (Group Service Representatives) are informed about activities and decisions made at the Conference level, keeping the spirit of AA service alive in our community. We are dedicated to making sure that when anyone, anywhere, reaches out for help, the hand of AA is always there.
For immediate support, call our 24-Hour Hotline: 503-684-0415.
“We are not a glum lot. If newcomers could see no joy or fun in our existence, they wouldn’t want it.”
— Big Book, p. 132
