Northeast Region Caucus

Last year, the Northeast Region asked for and received permission from the Board to hold its annual caucus prior to the 2009 Delegate Meeting. The caucus will be held on November 8 in Syracuse, NY. This will mark the first time a region will meet apart from the convention site. Other regions interested in exploring this option are encouraged to contact the ISO office for further information.

Registered groups in the Northeast Region are urged to elect a delegate to the regional caucus. This delegate will also be eligible to participate in the 2009 ISO Delegate Meeting next spring. To register, please use the Delegate Certification Form on the opposite page.

Important Notes

  1. Only groups currently registered with the ISO of SAA, Inc. can send a delegate to the Northeast Regional Caucus. A list of SAA meetings currently registered in the Northeast Region can be obtained from the ISO office or the ISO website, www.saa-recovery.org. If your group is not listed, you must accompany your Delegate Certification Form with a completed Group Registration Form. This form can also be obtained from the ISO office or on the ISO website.
  2. Suggested guidelines for selecting your delegate to the Northeast Region Caucus and to the 2009 Delegate Meeting can be found in the 2008 Call to Convention on page 27 (http://www.saa-recovery.org/Call_to_Convention_2008_web.pdf).
  3. There is a $5 caucus registration fee to help pay for the meeting. Board members and alternates and Literature Committee members and alternates must also pay. This fee is in addition to the fee for the 2009 ISO Delegate Meeting to be held in the spring. Those who register for the NE Region Caucus will be pre-registered for the Delegate Meeting but will have to pay the additional delegate fee at the time of the Delegate Meeting.
  4. Before October 31, the form certifying your delegate should be mailed to ISO, P.O. Box 70949, Houston, TX 77270. After October 31, your delegate may hand carry this form to the caucus.
