Inner Family Time Workshop: Connecting the Loving Parent & Inner Child Workshop
2026-04-15 21:30 - 23:30
An ACA Workshop on Zoom sponsored by the ACA Arizona Intergroup (IG #9)
During this 2-hour workshop we will practice connecting with higher power, expressing the inner child or inner teen, and embodying the inner loving parent.
After a meditation to guide you to connect with your higher power, loving parent, and inner child or teen, you will have 30 minutes to play, create, dance, journal or whatever else your inner child would like to do, while witnessed and affirmed by your loving parent. Following a visualization to integrate all of these parts within you, time is open for those who wish to share what the experience was like for them.
To prepare for the workshop you may want to ask your inner child or teen what supplies they would like to have available during the Inner Family Time. If they aren’t sure, you can select some art supplies, a favorite plushie, a device to listen to music, and anything else your inner child has enjoyed in the past. There is no wrong thing to do during Inner Family Time. Our purpose is to create a safe space for our inner child or inner teen to express themselves and to be witnessed and supported by inner loving parent and higher power.

Literature Committee Quarterly Open House
2026-04-18 13:30 - 15:00
Tradition 5: Each group has but one primary purpose—to carry its message to the adult child who still suffers.
Join us for our Quarterly Open House to hear from Literature, Publishing, and Translations plus learn about the new Editing and Standards subcommittees.
With over 50 active projects underway, there’s a lot we have to share and plenty of opportunities for you to get involved.
This is an enormous undertaking and we need you! Whether you’re an editor, proofreader, evaluator, translator, project manager, coordinator, InDesign expert, or someone who just loves taking good notes, there’s a place for you here.
We especially want to hear from members whose perspectives and experiences haven’t always been centered, so the message of recovery reaches every still-suffering adult child worldwide.
Literature Development &
Literature Evaluation will also be on hand to give updates on projects in development and the conference approval process.
