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 to
help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.
