Vermont consists of one Area, Area 70, and thus is represented at the Conference by one delegate. It is the delegate’s responsibility to serve the U.S./Canada Conference as a whole. As voting members of the Conference, delegates bring to its deliberations the experiences and viewpoints of their own areas. Yet they are not representatives of their areas in the usual political sense; after hearing all points of view and becoming fully informed during Conference discussion, they vote in the best interests of A.A. as a whole.
The Delegate attends all Area Committee Meetings, Full Area Assemblies, and various regional meetings and forums. They collect feedback from AAs in the Area to share at the Conference through meeting with districts and at the Pre-Conference Sharing Session held in the early spring.

I won’t receive the Final Agenda until February 17, 2025. I will make that available here and will begin a series of zoom sharing sessions in March after I receive the background material. I will be holding an in-person sharing session on Saturday, April 19, 2025, in Barre, Vermont. Save the date for this all-day affair! The 2025 General Service Conference is April 27 through May 3, 2025.
Yours in Service,
Jim Thompson
