Some of the things the H&I Chair does include:
1. Serve as liaison between all requests for a Nicotine Anonymous panel and the volunteers who will go on the panel.
A. Gather all information regarding street address, location within the facility and time for the panel.
B. Solicit volunteers for the panel from meetings in the area of the facility. It is ideal to get 4 persons, 2 men and 2 women. However it may be a smaller group depending on the circumstances. Be sure each volunteer has the guidelines for sharing as well as the meeting and location information.
C. Meet with the volunteers at a central place at the facility. Be sure to arrange that if anyone is late the rest of the group will go in and start the panel. Being on time with our commitment is important.
D. Attend SCINA Intergroup Meetings on 3rd Sunday of the month and make any report requested.
2. Gather contacts at Hospitals and Institutions where we can send our Meeting List every month (via email if possible to keep our postage costs down). For example, anyone in our Fellowship could ask at their doctor or dentist's office if we could send them a copy of our meeting list every month via email. If they say yes, get their name, email address, phone number, and the business name and address and notify someone in Intergroup. Send that information to communications@SCINA.org and we can add them to our monthly mailing.
Here are 2 flyers we send out:
Flyer we send out to Hospitals and Institutions offering our help.
Flyer we make available to our fellowship to explain what a speaker panel does.
Please contact John D. at (818) 618-1501 or communications@SCINA.org if you can volunteer to be the Chairperson for Hospitals and Institutions.
