Carrying the message is being the message! Sharing our experience, strength & hope (ESH) to whomever HP puts in our path strengthens program. It is living program.
To help carry the message we sponsor, we attend meetings, we share whenever possible.
Our shares whether in written format or recorded are a much needed valuable tool for newcomers, professionals, family & friends.

Email the link to friends, family members, medical and mental health professionals, clergy, colleges, organizations, and professionals.
Share resources for newcomers such as a flyer for the convention, Newcomer Open House, and the oavirtual.org website.
It is a great way to carry the message by sharing with Health Care professional that they may refer individuals to OA. Clergy, healthcare professionals, and their staff are welcome to attend at no charge as well.
You can also share the links with your Doctor, Clergy, and even friends & Family.
