Al-anon Family Groups*<\/u><\/p>\n

https:\/\/al-anon.org<\/a><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Al-Anon is a mutual 12 step support group of peers who share their experience in applying the Al-Anon principles to problems related to the effects of a problem drinker in their lives. It is not group therapy and is not led by a counselor or therapist. This support network complements and supports professional treatment.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Alateen*<\/u><\/div>\n
https:\/\/al-anon.org\/newcomers\/teen-corner-alateen\/<\/a><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Alateen is a peer support group for teens who are struggling with the effects of someone else\u2019s problem drinking. Many Alateen groups meet at the same time and location as an Al-Anon group. Alateen meetings are open only to teenagers. Alateen is not a program for young people seeking sobriety.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
NarAnon*<\/u><\/div>\n
https:\/\/www.nar-anon.org<\/a><\/div>\n
A 12 step program for Family and Friends of Addicts<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
*There are no dues or fees.<\/b>\u00a0Groups are self-supporting, and usually pass a basket around for a voluntary contribution to pay for rent or Al-Anon literature.<\/div>\n
The 2015 Al-Anon membership survey shows that 40% of newcomers who first came to Al-Anon because of a loved one\u2019s drug addiction and later came to better understand the seriousness of that person\u2019s alcohol problem only after attending Al-Anon for a period of time.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
In Al-Anon\/Alateen, members do not give direction or advice to other members. Instead, they share their personal experiences and stories, and invite other members to \u201ctake what they like and leave the rest\u201d\u2014that is, to determine for themselves what lesson they could apply to their own lives.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The best place to learn how Al-Anon\/Alateen works is at a meeting in your local community. Personal contact is an important element in the healing process. These Web page selections may give you some encouragement to visit your first meeting.<\/div>\n
