The Hospitals and Institutions sub-committee carries the message of recovery to addicts who might not be able to attend regular meetings. Some places H&I takes meetings include hospitals, detox centers and jails. Encountering addicts in these settings can help provide a more realistic perspective, keeping our memory “green” and intensifying our gratitude. Sharing through H&I is a direct, personal form of service which reinforces both our commitment and our understanding of the program. H&I meets at 6:30PM on the first Wednesday of the month at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 1100 Shasta Avenue, San Jose, 95126. It’s on the corner of Shasta Avenue and The Alameda. The meeting will be held in the Fireside Room. For more information, please send an e-mail to [email protected]
