FUNDS

CoDA Community services are funded by meeting contributions in excess of prudent reserves. 

To send your 7th Tradition Contribution, click here to print out pdf form.

Each CoDA meeting is encouraged to maintain a prudent reserve in their treasury (normally 2 to 3 months rent and expenses). Over and above that amount, it is suggested that any additional 7th Tradition monies be sent to local, regional, and international CoDA service groups for outreach & service.

As a guideline, we suggest the following distribution:

          60% excess to GSACC  -  (Community Level) - 1800 21st Street, PMB 210, Sacramento, CA 95811-6812
          30% excess to NorCal CoDA - (Intergroup/Regional Level) - 1800 21st Street, PMB 230, Sacramento, CA 95811-6812
          10% excess to Co-Dependents Anonymous, Inc. - PO Box 33577, Phoenix, AZ  85067-3577
