Taking books into for profit facilities- Should we change the format for treatment centers?
Eric proposes changing the format at Northpoint. They are charging clients to be at the AA meeting. Focus more on steps 1, 2, 3, speakers, books.
We also have to be careful with the facilities- we are guests and it’s a privilege for us to be able to go into the facilities.
