The Region shall provide funding for Region Representatives to attend Region events to defray Intergroup Costs, based on Intergroup financial needs and availability of Region funds. It is recommended that an Intergroup requesting funding for Region Representatives to attend Region events submit the request to the Region Treasurer at least 21 days prior to the beginning of the Assembly for which the funding is requested. The Region Treasurer shall, at that time, review the Region treasury and keep a prudent reserve, making available on a per capita basis, funding for Region Representatives to the extent possible. Requested funding will be mailed to Intergroups provided that there is time to mail it. Otherwise, funding will be available for the RRs at the Assembly.
- The treasurer, in consultation with the Steering Committee, shall adapt such funding to each particular event to maximize participation at each assembly.
- Any over‐funding or unused funding from the Region must be returned to the Region Treasurer.
- Funding for the host area should be at the discretion of the Treasurer, in conjunction with the Steering Committee, not to exceed 50% of the funding of other Representatives.
- Funding for the first Region Representative of an Intergroup for each Region event (excluding the World Service Business Conference) will not exceed $600 per Representative. When funding for additional Representative(s) of an Intergroup is available, it will be made available to all subsequent Representatives on a pro rata basis, not to exceed $250.00 per Representative.
