Committee Growth
Attracting more people to the
PI subcommittee will always be high on your priority list. Here
are a few suggestions to get more NA members on your committee:
* Work hard and accomplish
projects. People are always attracted to a committee that gets
things done.
* Make PI service attractive
in announcements at meetings. People want to serve on a
committee that is fulfilling our primary purpose and carrying
the message in concrete ways. They don’t necessarily want to be
part of a committee just because "it needs support." Share what
the PI subcommittee has done, is doing and will do in the
future.

* Personally invite NA members
to join your committee. Although announcements are very
important, it is often more effective to tell someone face to
face how much he or she is needed, and about the exciting ways
the PI committee is carrying the message. A personal invitation
makes individual members feel important. Besides, they are!
* Choose a consistent time and
place to hold the subcommittee meeting. Members need to have
confidence that the PI committee meets regularly, at the same
time and the same place, just as they expect of NA recovery
meetings. Some committees list their meetings on recovery
meeting lists.
