What is a Group Treasurer?
It is an Al-Anon member elected by the group to handle the group’s financial obligations and advise the group on a regular basis of the group’s financial situation. The group must authorize all disbursements of money. The Treasurer is responsible to carry out those requests. The term of the position, and election process, is up to the group. This position also exists at District, Al-Anon Information Services (AIS), Area, World Service and special committees created for one time events i.e. workshops, conventions, etc. In areas above the group level the Treasurer is elected and serves a term similar to the Group Representative’s position.
