- Purposes of the Assembly Convention Committee, a standing committee of the Region 6 Assembly:
- Encourages R6 Intergroups and members to host conventions to carry the OA message of recovery and foster OA unity and fellowship.
- Reviews convention proposals and makes a recommendation, in the form of a motion, to be considered by assembly representatives.
- Helps ensure compliance with R6 policies and OA Traditions as they relate to R6 conventions.
- Raises funds through conventions to support R6 financially.
- Serves as a repository for critical information relative to recent past R6 conventions.

Assembly Convention Committee meetings
- The Assembly Convention Committee meets during sessions of the Region 6 Assembly, and at other times as needed.
