Temporary Contact Program to Bridge The Gap
Between Treatment Centers To A.A.

for an alcoholic. Many of us had never been sober on the outside, and the first days out were a little frightening. Sometimes, we didn't know if we would stay sober. To help the newly recovering alcoholic, District One offers a Bridge the Gap/Temporary Contact program for individuals nearing their treatment discharge date.

Simply put, a temporary contact is an A.A. member who will help you get to your first AA meetings, introduce you to other AA members, briefly explain AA's twelve step program, explain the idea of sponsorship, acquaint you with AA literature, and answer other questions you may have. Please submit this form at least one week prior to your discharge date to allow us adequate time to staff your request.
