Meeting Schedule

Please email the COSA Zoom room at cosazoomroom@yahoo.com prior to attending your first meeting.Tell us why you feel COSA is right for you; COSA Zoom Rooms are password protected to ensure the anonymity and safety of our members.

Before Attending Your First Meeting Please Read the COSA ZOOM Room Guidelines:

To keep the COSA Zoom Room safe, we COSAs:

  • Mute our microphone unless sharing or when asked to unmute by the Lead.

  • Are aware certain attire may be triggering for others and dress accordingly.

  • Stay attentive, avoid cell phone use/texting, minimize distracting movements, eating, etc.

  • Consider using ear buds if another person around us is able to hear anything. Meetings are private and anonymous. We make sure that we are the only person others in the meeting can see and that meeting participants are only visible to us.

  • Keep our video on. We make a visual and verbal introduction when entering the room for the safety of others. When possible, we inform “Everyone” in the chat box as a courtesy to the group if we must turn off our video.

  • Communicate any barriers at the beginning of the meeting. For example, if our home has people or activities going on, we may have to suddenly stop our video.

  • Make a habit of arriving on time and staying for the entire meeting.

  • To keep meetings healthy, we do not refer to specific acting out places, people, or behaviors, but rather speak in general terms and refer to how we feel. It is most helpful when members focus on the tools of the program, including the Steps, Traditions, and slogans. It is part of the trusted servant’s role and everyone’s responsibility to gently speak up if someone shifts away from these guidelines.

  • Share our own experience, strength, and hope (ESH) with the group, speaking in “I” terms (rather than using ‘you’) and keeping the focus on our own journey.

  • Advice-giving, telling others what they should do, judging or commenting on what people say or cross talk, including directing comments to a group member, or using another participants name during share, are all strongly discouraged.

Different Meeting types are available throughout the week.

(Topic, Sponsorship, Sexual Anorexia-Avoidance, Step Study, Meditation, and Support).

COSA Diversity Statement

  • COSA Diversity is consistent with the Third Tradition of COSA, which states that the only requirement for COSA membership is that our lives have been affected by compulsive sexual behavior.
  • The COSA Fellowship welcomes all genders, all varieties of relationship to the addict, all religious and spiritual preferences, all employment statuses, all marital statuses, all ethnicities, cultures, and languages. COSA does not discriminate on the basis of class, financial status, sexual orientation or gender identification, physical or mental challenges, race, or national origins.
  • In COSA, we find hope whether or not there is a sexually addicted person currently in our lives.
  • COSA Diversity is consistent with the First Tradition of COSA, which states that our common welfare should come first; personal recovery depends upon COSA unity.
