Our function is not that of a policy or decision-making board in matters affecting gay and lesbian members of A.A., nor is our function to isolate or separate ourselves from the mainstream of A.A. The International Advisory Council for gay and lesbian members of A.A. is listed in all A.A. directories under 'Special International Contacts". It was established in 1981 to serve and have the involvement of the lesbians, gay men and gay people in A.A., regardless of how they choose to identify themselves. The Council exists to serve lesbians and gay men in A.A.. It does not speak for all gay and lesbian A.A. members but strives to serve as a communication link, not only between and among gay and lesbian groups, but also with A.A. as a whole. This communication occurs within the context provided by A.A.'s Traditions and the FellowshipÕs customs and procedures.
