Quotes and Facts
Al-Anon/Alateen Groups can be started by anyone. Al-Anon and Alateen members, ministers, doctors, social workers, or AA members can initiate the formation of an Al-Anon/Alateen group. However, after the group has started, members operate the group. Professional or AA participation should be limited to open meetings. Check out Al-Anon resources online. |
