Area 10 Correspondence Chair

AA members on the "outside" can contribute to their own sobriety and that of the inmate by becoming a Corresponding Contact. The Corresponding Contact communicates with the inmate by letter sharing their experience, strength and hope. This helps the inmate to become acquainted with AA on the outside and your letter becomes a meeting in print for the inmate.
