“Talking with your Doctor about OA”

The Region III Professional Outreach and Public Information (PIPO) Committee created a script for a skit to provide OA members with an example of how to talk to healthcare professionals in order to spread the message of recovery to those who are still suffering. The skit is approved as locally produced literature and may be downloaded for use by intergroups, workshops, meeting, or individuals.
