About SLAA's Greater Delaware Valley Intergroup (GDVI)
GDVI is the intergroup for SLAA meetings in the Greater Delaware Valley region, which includes the following areas: In Pennsylvania--Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery Counties and the Lehigh Valley. In New Jersey: the Central and Southern counties. We also serve the State of Delaware. Intergroup meetings are open to all SLAA members. SLAA groups are encouraged to elect a Group Representative and an Intergroup Alternate Representative to share in attending GDVI meetings, representing your meeting's Group Conscience at Intergroup.
GDVI holds monthly meetings (info below) to convene and experience the Greater Delaware Valley's group conscience. Through this service, we also learn what it means to be "trusted servants" and to become "full participants in the fellowship of SLAA." Meetings include discussion of Intergroup business and the service work of our vital committees. (Those who attend Intergroup regularly usually find themselves inspired to join one or more planning committees.)
Through those committees, we provide support (real time and concrete action) for SLAA activities on behalf of our member service area and beyond. GDVI's trusted servants support SLAA meetings, members and newcomers in the following ways currently:
