WORKSHOP READING LIST

In the absence of a complete sequential DA textbook, we have put together a logical order in which to study a selection of approved DA and AA pamphlets and books, all of which are available as of 2021. Any StepSponsorDA workshop will study the 12 Tools, 12 Steps, 12 Traditions, and selected service literature in a structured sequence.

In gathering the literature needed for the StepSponsorDA workshop, most of us have found that if we prefer paper literature it is best to get all material ordered at the beginning of the series as it takes 2-3 weeks for shipping and handling.

 

DA now offers electronic versions of most of these pieces. They may be obtained one at a time, or grouped in a discounted package, instantly, upon payment.

Free DA Literature

All free DA literature is available to download via the links below.

 

The above free DA literature can also be found at

https://debtorsanonymous.org/getting-started/free-literature/  and

Additional Workshop Schedule Info

  • Daily Morning Call is an autonomous group of StepSponsorDA, # 14261. Per our own group conscience, we set an arbitrary schedule of two months for our workshop cycle. On the first day of each odd-numbered month we begin a fresh, new cycle of our StepSponsorDA studies by phone. To access a schedule of topics, readings and recording reference numbers for the current phone series in progress, click this link: SSDA MORNING CALL SCHEDULE

Inclusivity Statement

The following Inclusivity Statement was approved by the General Service Board in July, 2022 and has been added to the 2022 Debtors Anonymous Manual of Service:

Whatever your story, you are welcome in Debtors Anonymous. In D.A., we celebrate the rich, diverse experiences of people of all identities. We embrace members of any race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, age, physical or mental ability, socio-economic status, religious, spiritual, or philosophical expression, or any other trait. Our various experiences benefit our recovery, so we encourage all members to value differences and actively participate in making D.A. an inclusive fellowship. Together, we create accessible and welcoming spaces for anyone with the desire to stop incurring debt, so that we may all recover one day at a time.

© COPYRIGHT JILL C. P. Do not duplicate without permission. The GreenBack Book Study Guide to existing DA Literature is a Rough Draft and is not DA World Service Conference Approved as of July 2021. At this time, StepSponsorDA group #14261 will exercise 4th tradition autonomy and continue to use GreenBack Book Study Guide for its existing workshops, as we have been doing since 2007.

As of the end of April 2021, the Debtors Anonymous World Service Conference has approved and issued a new study guide, different from the GreenBack Book. StepSponsorDA daily morning call members formed a committee to review and evaluate the new guide and made a determination to continue using the GreenBack Book as its primary study guide. The new 'DA 12 Steps Study Guide' will be recommended to current morning call members as supplemental material.
