Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is a group of individuals who have shared their experiences, strength, and hope in the hopes that it might help them solve their problems and assist others with alcoholism recovery. Membership is open to anyone who wants to quit drinking. A.A. members do not pay dues. We are financially self-supporting by our contributions. A.A. does not associate with any religion, sect, political organization, or denomination; it is not interested in engaging in controversy and neither supports nor opposes any cause. We are here to help others alcoholics stay sober.
