News & Events

News:  There are two news items of news available here.

Breaking news:  This contains news of items that deserve special announcement.  The latest creation of a special committee or task force.  Dates of our annual CoDA conference and convention.  Special things happening in the CoDA fellowship.

Calendar of Events:  A listing of various events that are occurring all over the world.

Registration:  Various forms/types of forms for registering for the International Convention, including CoDA Service Conference.

Delegate Packets are available on-line for delegates and other attendees.  These packages include committee reports, proposed Bylaw changes (when they are being presented to Conference) and other documents for use at the conference.  See the Delegate Package menu item to the left to view or download these documents. 

Conventions (International CoDA Conventions) are primarily spiritual in nature, similar to workshops and retreats.

A CoDA Service Conference (CSC) is held each year in order to transact the business of CoDA by group conscience. This is CoDA’s annual business meeting. Delegates to CSC elect trusted servants, review budgets and expenditures, authorize literature, and develop goals for our organization and plans to reach those goals. While voting privileges are restricted, all CoDA members are welcome to attend the Conference and work on a CoDA committee.

Convention and Conference (CSC) will be held together in 2009 and each year thereafter.  Meetings have generally been held in July.  At the 2010 CSC, it was voted that all reports/motions be uploaded to the web into the delegate package at least 60 days before the CSC so that Voting Entity delegates and other voting members will have time to review and obtain a group conscience with their local assemblies.

Within a month of the CSC, the motions are uploaded to the Status of CoDA Activities area of the website under motions.  As soon after that as possible, all of the printed reports and motions are linked to the particular item described in the motions list.

Usually the items in the delegate package will remain in place 60 to 90 days after the end of CSC.
