District CPC Committees
CPC Committees provides information about A.A. to those who have contact with alcoholics through their profession, including health care professionals, educators, faith based organizations, social workers, human resource departments, lawyers, social workers, union leaders, and industrial managers, as well as those working in the field of alcoholism.
CPC Committees focus on
- Establishing better communication with professionals working with alcoholics
- Finding simple and effective ways of cooperating without affiliating
- Explaining clearly what A.A. does and what A.A. doesn’t do

These positions are two-year commitments. This is an Area Service committee using the CPC workbook from GSO and Oregon Area Guidelines.
The purpose of the Committee is to serve as a resource for District CPC Committees by providing information and support through inward facing workshops, presentations, committee meetings and other helpful resources.
The Districts in Oregon Area then carry out this work by providing information about AA to their local professionals who have contact with alcoholics through their profession. Information about where we are, what we are, what we can do and what we cannot do.
There is travel to districts to put on inward facing workshops and give presentations on doing C.P.C. work. A literature, travel budget as well as the C.P.C. Kit is provided.
What is considered a professional?
A professional can be:

Or anyone who deals with problem drinkers in the course of their work. Many of these people often encounter the suffering alcoholic, and in spite of public awareness, many of them simply don’t know what to do with a problem drinker.
