ANLP Contributions

A New Leaf Newsletter needs stories, poems, etc. that are centered around recovery. Of particular need are 800-1500 word feature pieces. Typically, the submission deadline is the 10th of the month, but they are in dire need now, so please send something in as soon as possible. The key ask is that it focuses on what happened and what it is like now rather than what it was like. Please send submissions to stories@anewleafpublications.org.

Vote to Change the Language ‘God’ to ‘Higher Power

At the 2021 MA World Service Conference, District 12 presented an Agenda Item to have a fellowship wide vote on whether or not to change the language in the short version of the 12 Steps to replace the word “God” with the words “Higher Power.” Starting November 9th, ballots for this vote will be emailed to individual meetings.
