New Frontiers Information page

New Frontiers is a platform where everyone has the opportunity to share their experiences, strengths, and hope with the A.A. community. It’s a “TABLE” where we can come together and be heard, if we’re willing to take the action!

Guidelines for submissions to New Frontiers:

Format :

  • Please type or write clearly and legibly, on one side of the paper only.  
  • Emails are always welcome.  
  • Send articles to the Central Office, and they will be forwarded to the current editor.  
  • If you quote from A.A. literature (or another source), provide the correct name of the source along with the page number. 

Length :

  • Whether it’s a one-liner you heard at a meeting, a short and sweet incident, or an in-depth exploration of a topic, say what you want to say.  
  • However, please keep articles to one typewritten page (approximately 500-600 words) as space is limited.  

What We Do Not Publish :

  • Personal prayers or tributes to individual A.A.s.  
  • Drama or anything unrelated to Alcoholics Anonymous (e.g., articles about alcoholism treatment, legislation, or medical advances).  

Share Your Experience, Strength, and Hope :

  •  Submit announcements (e.g., meeting info, special events, anniversaries, deaths) by the 12th of the month for the following month’s issue.  
  • Articles, jokes, and interesting tidbits can be submitted at any time.
