THE PREAMBLE OF ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS
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
A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions.
A.A. 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.
