This event is hosted on zoom. Non-US DA and BDA members are welcome to join us!
Registration for this event is now open. Please visit our home page for other upcoming events, including the BDA Solvency Immersion Conference, for which July through December 2024 registration is now OPEN.
We will host two workshops, three weeks apart, sharing our experience, strength, and hope and maximizing the recovery opportunities presented by this incredibly helpful DA tool, specifically related to enjoying happy holidays sanely, serenely, and most importantly, to us, solvently.
On Sunday, November 19:
Our workshop leader will help us prepare holiday spending plans and then we will receive feedback and support from fellow
workshop participants, both in real time.
On Sunday, December 10:
We will review our holiday spending plans and spending so far, reviewing our funding sources and receiving support to follow our plans.
Because we will be welcoming DA and BDA members to share real-world details of their personal lives and possibly their businesses, we must ask that all workshop participants meet the only requirement for DA and BDA membership:
an ongoing desire to stop incurring new unsecured debt, one day at a time, no matter what
Because we will be discussing the specifics of our lives and possibly businesses, the only protection for our anonymity will be required registrations and the closed-ness of the conference group. To maintain anonymity, we will not be recording either of the workshop sessions.
How to register:
Please send a one-time contribution of $20 or more via https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/bdaworkshops with a note that says:
Holiday Spending Plans (and your preferred email address for follow-up)
Please keep in mind that your $20 contribution (or more) will give you access to up TWO 2-hour interrelated events over two months.
All funds received will be split between our General Fund (20%), Literature Fund (60%), and Public Information Fund (20%) — Our service vision is to say "yes" to every request we receive for free DA and BDA conference-approved literature and to provide meaningful outreach to our fellow debtors who need our help. Please support our vision and service activities!
