Our common welfare should come first, personal recovery depends upon OA unity. Tradition One

The last Saturday in February all over the world
we recognize Unity Day in Overeaters Anonymous.
More than 6,500 registered groups in over 80 countries,
about 60,000 members worldwide, we recognize the bonds
uniting each of us, the strength we represent
when we put our hands in those of diverse people
speaking languages we don’t understand,
facing challenges we’ve never imagined,  along with
the one we share, a desire to stop eating compulsively.
And we know beyond a doubt that together, hand-in0-hand,
we find love and understanding beyond our wildest dreams.
