12:30 pm Session 1 – A Vision for the Future of SLAA in New England
Marking fifty years of SLAA, this session looks forward — naming why the
fellowship’s meeting infrastructure has lagged behind other twelve-step programs (like Alcoholics Anonymous), and laying out a vision for closing that gap right here in New England.

2:00 pm Session 2 – Compulsive sex and love addiction behaviors also provide ways to distance ourselves from experiencing intimacy. Some of us can’t even name our needs. Beneath the surface, anorexia consists of not doing something. This session explores the avoidant, anorectic side of sex and love addiction.

3:30 pm Session 3 –  So you’ve found someone great. Now what? In this session, we will look to the SLAA basic text to learn about how to set (and maintain) healthy boundaries, let go of fantasy, and move from neediness to love. Through sharing our experiences, strengths, and hopes, we will explore emotional sobriety, mutual respect and inner wholeness in the
context of a relationship.

The day will include registration and time to speak with other recovering people, followed by keynote speakers’ shares on the event theme, and three
(3) 1 hr 15 min recovery topic sessions.  Come for the whole day or whatever parts work for you
