Our Purpose -
International Seniors In Sobriety Conference
This conference will focus on
concerns and issues impacting seniors, their spouses and
family with both short term and long term sobriety. It will
provide an opportunity for alcoholics of all ages to discuss
the effects of aging on sober alcoholics and how to help the
still-suffering senior alcoholic.
Our history began with a
conference in Kona, Hawaii and continued with another in
Sedona, Arizona. We intend to use experiences from these
events to create yet another highly enjoyable and rewarding
conference.
