​Alateen Information from Our Area 9 Delegate:
We have updated the Alateen coordinator page on the North Florida Area website.
The page is reorganized to simplify our work here during the covid-19 era.
There is an easy link to the WSO Alateen chat which is available right away for all Alateens.  
In the panel above and at this link, there is a WSO Guide that helps any face to face Alateen meeting if they want to create a temporary online meeting.  
In addition, certification and recertification is being done virtually as requested by members, so please contact Cindy, Llew, or Rick if you need to schedule a virtual fresh event.
Please contact Pat A  for access to the online training which should be done before attending a fresh event.
And, also, if this is all confusing, please just reach out to your District Representative or directly to me.  We are here for you, and here to help you continue to serve.  
Hope everyone is well, and we are all so appreciative of your dedication and responsibility for the teens.

Love in service,
Cindy J
Panel 58 Delegate

Protocols:
  • Parents or other drivers watch as their Alateens join our group to ensure Alateens are in meeting safely
  • Sponsors ensure all Alateens connect safely with parents or drivers after the meeting
  • Everyone wears a mask
  • 6' distancing
  • Bring your own chair
  • No passing meeting materials
  • Meeting materials are set out on picnic table for distribution using sanitary gloves
  • Meeting materials are stored untouched for a full week
  • No touching, hugging, elbow bumping, etc
  • Nobody is recognizable with masks on, thus anonymity isn't an issue
  • We gather away from commonly shared public areas
  • Great opportunity to meet drivers/parents as they drop Alateens off & pick them up
  • Quiet members learn they must intend to be heard, elevated voices aren't always angry

Meetings in Other Areas
The Washington State area would like to hear about any electronic Alateen workshops or conferences in the works. The annual WA Area Alateen Conference (WAAC) was canceled and the Alateens on the committee had no interest in setting up an electronic conference day, but some teens might attend such an event if we provided the information.
