c e Al-Anon's Invitation to You
We
invite you to try our program. At Al-Anon meetings, you will meet other
people facing the same problems you are.
In
Al-Anon, we begin to recover from the effects of being close to an
alcoholic. We do this by sharing our experiences with others. As we begin to
understand the family disease of alcoholism, we are better able to handle
our problems and improve our lives.
You can
gain support and understanding by listening and speaking with others at
Al-Anon meetings.
In
Al-Anon, you are no longer alone. We urge you to Contact the nearest Al-Anon
Family Group.
No Dues
or Fees. Our meetings
are free. We meet our group expenses by passing the basket. All
contributions are voluntary.

Anonymous
and Confidential.
Your identity and what you say at meetings will be carefully guarded.

It's Time
For Help.
Alcoholism is a family disease. It affects everyone who is close to the
alcoholic. Most of us believe that the alcoholic is the one who needs to
change. It comes as a shock to hear that we also need to change and it's
time to look at ourselves. By going to an Al-Anon meeting, you will find
help and understanding. You will no longer be alone.

There is
a Better Way.
Are you
"sick and tired of being sick and tired?"
On your
own, you've tried everything you could think of and nothing seems to work.
Don't be too hard on yourself and don't give up. There is hope. You are at a
turning point. If you would like your life to be different, Al-Anon offers
you a better way. At Al-Anon meetings, you will meet people who understand
your frustration.
We Urge
you to Try Al-Anon.
Like
you, members in Al-Anon knows what it is like to live with the uncertainty
of alcoholism. At this critical time in your life,
you can begin to move forward by finding out where Al-Anon meetings are
located in your community.
