Hospitals
and Institutions
The sole purpose of a Hospitals
and Institutions Committee is
to carry the message of Cocaine
Anonymous to those in Hospitals
and Institutions.
Hospitals or Institutions served may include, but are not limited to, correctional
facilities, sanitariums, Detox
units, juvenile detention centers,
half-way houses and shelters;
either governmental or private.
There is a distinct difference
between H&I meetings and regular
CA Meetings. H&I meetings
are often restricted to patients
or residents only, and not open
to the community as a whole. These
meetings are brought into Facilities
by local CA members through the
H&I Committee. H&I Meetings
are basically beginners meetings;
with the chairperson of each meeting
providing the speakers. They are
not usually listed in the area
or world directory; and they do
not observe the 7th Tradition.
Certain Facilities may require
H&I participants to be subject
to sobriety requirements, and
dress and conduct codes.
**Cocaine Anonymous
is not affiliated with any of
these facilities in any way whatsoever.
We simply bring autonomous CA
H&I meetings into these facilities
to carry the message to the addict
who still suffers.
