motions 1. to change literature amount from $50 to $200.

Policy
and Administrations brought up that Vision of Hope Center has been distributing
flyers and also making announcements at meetings concerning activities at their
center, which violates some of our traditions. It was discussed that they need
to be more specific and state that these are NA functions not function promoted
by the center in order for these events to be announced at any NA meeting. After some discussion agreements were made
and the meeting may change its name in order to eliminate confusion because the
NA meeting is also named Vision of Hope.
