12 TRADITIONS

 

  1. Our common welfare should come first; personal progress for the greatest number depends upon unity.
  2. For our group purpose there is but one authority: a loving Higher Power, as this one may express her/himself in our group conscience. Our leaders are but trusted servants; they do not govern.
  3. The only requirement for membership is that you be a victim of childhood sexual abuse, that you desire to recover from it, and that you, as an adult, have not sexually abused any child.
  4. Each group should be autonomous except in matters affecting another group or SlA as a whole.
  5. Each SIA group has but one primary purpose: to carry its message to the survivor of childhood sexual abuse who still suffers.
  6. An SIA group ought never to endorse, finance, or lend the SIA name to any outside enterprise lest problems of money, property and prestige divert us from our primary objective.
  7. SIA strives to be fully self-supporting and will not accept contributions that compromise SIA’s autonomy or mission. *)
  8. Survivors of Incest Anonymous Twelve Step work should remain forever non-professional, but our service centers may employ special workers.
  9. Survivors of Incest Anonymous groups, as such, ought never be organized, but they may create service boards or committees directly responsible to those they serve.
  10. Survivors of Incest Anonymous has no opinion on outside issues; hence, the SIA name ought never be drawn into public controversy.
  11. SIA public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, films and television.
  12. Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our Traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities.



*) SIA NY INTERGROUP considers any donation initiated by, or in memory or support of an individual survivor member, such as one from a friend or relative, a place of employment, proceeds from a publication or other entity, or in support of SIA as a whole, to be within the self-supporting part of the SIA Seventh Tradition. SIA NY Intergroup considers donations made as a result of a survivor’s involvement with SIA to be directly related to that survivor; these donations are therefore considered part of the SIA self-supporting tradition.
