Step Retreat to Go - S.F.I. Services to S.L.A.A. Groups and Intergroups

The Twelve Steps have been considered by many the cornerstone of the Recovery Movement. The effects of Step Retreats on those who have experienced them are remarkably positive. The retreat activities that the S.F.I. has refined encourages each participant to work through a comprehensive twelve-step guide. Most participants make significant progress through steps appropriate to their current depth of sobriety during the weekend event and leave with the materials necessary to continue further through the steps, leading to a more lasting and gratifying recovery life.
 

why?
not all areas have the resources and experience to host a successful S.L.A.A. step retreat, whereas the South Florida Intergroup has both resources and experience, recognizes the need to share, and is willing to seed this vital aspect of recovery to other areas outside of South Florida
 
what?
the South Florida Intergroup will sponsor weekend retreats, featuring the back-to-basics approach to the Twelve Steps, anywhere in the Continental United States provided that the requesting group or intergroup provider a place for the Facilitator to sleep, provides transportation to and from the airport, and distributes an appropriate quantity of flyers for the event for at least two months in advance
 

how?
three levels of support are available to groups and intergroups interested in fostering growth in their local S.L.A.A. Community:
(1) sponsorship - S.F.I. handles almost everything
(2) facilitation - S.F.I. sends a Retreat Facilitator with materials
(3) support - S.F.I. provides information and materials
 
which?
the S.F.I. Has three times voted unanimously to use the Sex and Love Step Recovery Booklet as the guidebook for their Step Retreats because it leads retreat participants through a clear and basic twelve-step approach that covers codependency, love addiction, sex addiction, and anorexia
 
when?
you can schedule the Twelve Step Retreat with the South Florida Intergroup well in advance of the event
 
how?
you can indicate the interest of your group or intergroup in this service through S.F.I.'s General Correspondence page, and we will help you determine which, if any, level of support is right for your area
