NeWCOMER
If you repeatedly drink more than you intend or want to, if you get into trouble, or if you have memory lapses when you drink, you may be an alcoholic.
Only you can decide. No one in A.A. will tell you whether you are or are not.
Professionals
In all public relations, AA’s sole objective is to help the still suffering alcoholic. Always mindful of the importance of personal anonymity, we believe this can be done by freely making available to you, experience of what we are, what we can do and what we cannot do.
Miembros de AA
The only requirement for AA membership is a desire to stop drinking. AA members may attend any meeting Open or Closed.
If you have an interest to learn more about Alcoholics Anonymous and how it works, but do not consider yourself an alcoholic, you are invited to attend any OPEN meeting as identified in our Meeting Guide.
