Welcome to COSA Telemeetings

COSA is a recovery program for men and women whose lives have been affected by someone’s compulsive sexual behavior. Based on the 12 steps and 12 traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous, our common goals are recovery from the effects of compulsive sexual behavior and to help others who suffer. For more information about COSA, please visit www.cosa-recovery.org or read “Frequently Asked Questions”.

A telemeeting is a meeting that is held via a telephone conference call. The format of our telemeetings closely mimic face-to-face COSA meetings. Anyone whose life has been affected by someone’s compulsive sexual behavior is welcome to attend our telemeetings.

When you first attend one of our meetings, you may attend anonymously: there is no requirement to introduce yourself or to speak until you are ready to do so. We welcome newcomers to our meetings at anytime.

Important Message to our Newcomers:

An automated voice will ask you to say your name before you enter the call, please disregard this message and press the # key on your phone instead. This allows you to bypass saying your name and immediately join the call. We want newcomers to feel free to join our meeting and not have to announce yourself until you feel comfortable doing so. We do not use this feature because of the anonymous nature of our calls but we are unable to turn off this part of their service. When you are ready, you can let us know you are on the call during the Introductions portion of the live call.

Some of our meetings use a Universal Mute to improve the sound quality on the call. If you get on a call and you say something but no one seems to hear you, the call is likely on Universal Mute so to be heard you will need to press *6 to bypass the Universal Mute so people can hear you. We encourage members to remain muted unless they are speaking so after you speak please mute yourself by pressing *6 again.
