Triangle Club of Palmetto Bay, Inc

The Franjo Triangle Club is where more than thirty 12-Step recovery meetings per week are held. The Franjo Triangle Club is a 501 (c) exempt, non-profit organization. The Franjo Triangle Club provides a large meeting area, a coffee bar area, a small room for 12-Step counseling, small meetings, and a quiet place for children to read, draw, or watch healthy DVDs while their parents attend meetings in the main room. The Franjo Triangle Club offers a wide variety of 12-Step meetings on a weekly basis, including: Most of our operating expenses are met by the groups themselves passing a basket at the end of each individual group meeting and receiving self-supporting contributions from those in attendance. The money is collected by a trusted servant, accounted for with attendance on a written form, and deposited. Some members contribute far more; most, even with limited means, contribute $1.00 per meeting; and a few (including the homeless) are unable to contribute anything at all. Our coffee bar provides refreshments on a donation-basis only. Literature is also provided. Meetings are dedicated to the primary purpose of living sober, drug-free lives. Because alcoholism and drug addiction are"family diseases,"the meetings reach countless other family members that are affected by the alcoholics' and addicts' disease. Other than our dream of a room tender to keep the room open as a daily safe haven, there is no paid staff; the members themselves open and run the meetings.
