Central Office
Our Central Office:
159 East D Street, Ste G, Benicia, CA, 94510
Central Office is kept well supplied with approved books, pamphlets and other literature. Ideally, this office is open weekdays from 9:00 am – 3:00 pm, and Saturday 10:00 am – 1:00 pm.
Volunteer staff persons sell books and answer the phone, often being the first contact with A.A. a prospective member may have. We are unable to keep the office open if volunteers are not available to fill the shifts, as such it’s always a good idea to call first. See Central Office Newsletter for openings.
The morning shift is from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm; the afternoon shift from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm.
Central Office Service Committee

(Entrance is in rear of building. Parking also in rear of building. A little confusing for first timers.)
Representatives from our area meetings and the various Central Office Committee Positions meet to discuss issues to ensure the hand of A.A. remains outstretched to members of our community. The range of meetings and individual commitments in our area is outstanding.
In the spirit of rotation, service positions are available beginning each January 1 except for Chair Person which is July 1.
