Conference
Overview
This conference will focus on concerns
and issues impacting seniors, their spouses and family with
both short term and long term sobriety.
We are a gathering of alcoholics,
celebrating the joy of living, who are interested in
learning more about the interactions of aging on the
alcoholic, both sober and still qualifying and how to help
the still-suffering senior.
The Conference Will Focus
On Important Issues To Seniors, including:
-
Alcoholism in Seniors: A Hidden
Epidemic.
-
Are you more at ease in meetings with
your peers?
-
Tired of profanity in meetings?
-
Effects of aging on the
alcoholic
-
Looking for a daytime meeting?
-
Having trouble asking for help?
-
How can I handle diminishing physical
and mental capacities (in myself and others)?
-
How do I manage as a single Senior
alcoholic?
-
Couples in sobriety: How is it
working... or not?
-
Spirituality, from agnostic to
spiritual
-
More about SIS
-
Who is a senior anyway?
The
conference will be both informative and entertaining. Plus,
there will be ample time to have fun and enjoy the beauty of
the Sedona area.
Our last conference was held in Kona,
Hawaii, with attendees from all over the U.S. and Canada who
learned, participated and had a blast for three days. We
plan this to be a repeat performance in Sedona in 2007!!!
Please come, participate and enjoy the
fellowship of SENIORS IN SOBRIETY!
