What is AA?
"Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women
who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they
may solve their common problem and help others to recover from
alcoholism.
"The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop
drinking. There are no dues or fees for AA membership; we are
self-supporting through our own contributions.
"AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics,
organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy,
neither endorses nor opposes any causes.
"Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other
alcoholics to achieve sobriety." *
