Anonymity in Al-Anon Family GroupsOne of the most important concepts in Al-Anon is anonymity. What is said, and whom we see at our meetings is held in confidence. Anonymity Outside Al-Anon - The motto "What you see here, what you hear here, whom you see here, stays here" sums up anonymity outside Al-Anon. We guard the anonymity of others in Al-Anon, Alateen, and AA by not revealing whom we see or what we hear in meetings. This provides comfort for new members that their identity will not be revealed upon joining Al-Anon. Members are cautioned to use only their first name or a pseudonym when speaking or writing as a member of Al-Anon. |

Welcome to Al-AnonFor over 50 years, Al-Anon (which includes Alateen for younger members) has been offering hope and help to families and friends of alcoholics. It is estimated that each alcoholic affects the lives of at least four other people... alcoholism is truly a family disease. |
How will Al-Anon Help Me?Many who come to Al-Anon are in despair, feeling hopeless, unable to believe that things can ever change. We want our lives to be different, but nothing we have done has brought about change. We all come to Al-Anon because we want and need help. |
Who is Al-Anon for?Al-Anon members are people just like you and me–people who have been affected by someone else's drinking. They are parents, children, spouses, partners, brothers, sisters, other family members, friends, employers, employees, and coworkers of alcoholics. |
