Office Report

Dear Al-Anon Members,

It has been a busy couple of months since our last ISR meeting.

With the world opening from COVID, it had become clear that the San Diego AIS Office needed more consistent support. Our contracted Interim Office Manager also expressed interest in reducing her hours.

The AIS Office Board hired Rina as Office Assistant in March 2023. Over this time, Rina became a proven asset in the office by taking on further responsibilities. Her excellent work and interest in expanding her role have greatly assisted me as Office Chair, as well as from our Interim Office Manager and our volunteers.

Rina is bilingual and has strong interpersonal and office skills. She has shown herself to be proficient in the computer programs used in the AIS Office, such as Excel and QuickBooks. She is organized, motivated, and has excellent communication skills.

In February 2024, the Board designated a Staffing Task Force that researched comparable nonprofit Office Manager positions in San Diego, reviewing duties and responsibilities, benefits, pay rates, etc. Using that information, the Board voted to approve Rina's promotion to Office Manager as of July 1, 2024. I’m glad to share that Rina gladly accepted the role, and we look forward to introducing her at the September ISR meeting.

Rina’s new email is [email protected].

The Office Chair's email continues to be [email protected].

Rina’s AIS Office hours are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 10am-4pm.

NEW - OFFICE WILL BE OPEN ON THE FIRST SATURDAY OF THE MONTH!

Beginning August 3, we are trialing having the AIS Office open on the FIRST SATURDAY OF THE MONTH FROM 10AM-1PM. We will have coffee and donuts, and it’s a great time for people to come by and see our amazing literature selection!

The office can be open on the second, third, and fourth Saturdays by appointment only. Appointments can be made on the Al-Anon San Diego Website under CONTACT US. You can also use this link: https://www.alanonsandiego.org/contact-us or call the office during business hours at 619-296-2666.

Volunteers are available to answer phones on Mondays, Fridays, and some weekends.

We invite all our staff, volunteers, and stakeholders to visit our office. Your presence and support are always appreciated, and we look forward to seeing you soon!
