SCPOAI is a clearinghouse through which meetings and members can communicate quickly and efficiently for the purpose of OA business. SCPOAI operates a 24 hour answering service (717-870-8115), maintains a local meeting list, publishes a quarterly newsletter "Road to Recovery," disseminates information to the public, keeps the World Service Office informed of meeting changes, and arranges marathons and retreats. We also interact with other intergroups and Region 7 to bring our members news of additional special events and meetings outside of South Central Pennsylvania.

Each meeting in the South Central Pennsylvania area may elect a member (and an alternate) to represent their group at the monthly SCPOAI meeting. While voting is limited at SCPOAI meetings to "official" representatives, SCPOAI meetings are open to all members of the fellowship. In carrying out our mission, service opportunities are numerous. We welcome all those who are interested in participating in one of the special interest committees within SCPOAI. If you are interested in strengthening your program with the rewarding service opportunities available above the meeting level, please join us at SCPOAI. More information regarding SCPOAI and the committees can be found in the SCPOAI Policy Manual.
