Al-Anon is self-supporting through its own voluntary contributions.Īl-Anon has but one purpose: to help families of alcoholics. We believe alcoholism is a family illness and that changed attitudes can aid recovery.Īl-Anon is not allied with any sect, denomination, political entity, organization, or institution does not engage in any controversy neither endorses nor opposes any cause. The Al-Anon Family Groups are a fellowship of relatives and friends of alcoholics who share their experience, strength, and hope in order to solve their common problems. Suggested Al-Anon Preamble to the Twelve Steps You may identify with some groups more than others. If you are new to Al-Anon, we urge you to try several groups, if at all possible. Some groups tend to have a broad mixture of people, with a variety of relationships to alcoholics, of various generations, etc., while some groups tend to be people in very similar circumstances. Some groups have 50 or more attendees and some groups have three or four regular members. There are a few groups that have meetings every day, and sometimes several meetings per day. ![]() Some groups meet once a week and others meet more often. Being a part of a recovering process gives us strength. Discovering that each of us is accepted unconditionally, no matter what problems we have, is a relief. Hearing from others who have been where we are gives us hope. The welcome we each received in our first meeting has given us the willingness to return. The most difficult part of joining Al-Anon and Alateen is finding the courage to walk into the first meeting. If you know someone who is living with an alcoholic, or whose life has been affected by an alcoholic, please urge him or her to try an Al-Anon meeting (or an Alateen meeting if this person is young). ![]() We have survived the same problems you are experiencing. If you are living with a person with an alcohol problem, or if in the past you have lived with an alcohol abuser, please try some of our meetings. Alateen meetings include one or two Al-Anon sponsors. We learn from the experience of others who have lived in similar situations.Īlateen meetings are the same as Al-Anon meetings except that Alateen is restricted to people under age 20 who live, or have lived, with someone who abuses alcohol. We meet regularly in small groups to absorb the strength and hope of others who have lived with alcoholism. Al-Anon is a fellowship of people who have been affected by the alcohol abuse of a loved one.
