Motion from Nancy re Hugs - Approved

Motion: That the "(((Nickname))) hug" acronym be removed from the Abbreviations & Acronyms page of the SLAAOnline.org website.

Motivation: In every other SLAA or SAA or SA meeting that I have attended since 2009, hugs are by permission only. That is strongly emphasized. I don't think we (SLAA Online) should even suggest that hugs be used casually, even online.

Group Discussion of ABC/M Material: - tabled to May meeting
