Who may Attend Al-Anon and Alateen Meetings?
Anyone who has been affected by someone else’s drinking in the past or present is welcome at any Al-Anon meeting. This belief is the basic “qualification” for participation in Al-Anon. In a typical Al-Anon meeting, participants share and listen to the experiences, strengths and hopes of one another on a confidential and anonymous basis.
Alateen meetings are open only to young people who believe their life is influenced by someone else’s drinking. For more information on Alateen call (925) 787-3127.
What are Al-Anon Meetings Like?
In a typical Al-Anon meeting, participants share and listen to the experiences, strengths and hopes of one another on a confidential and anonymous basis. Most Al-Anon meetings focus at first on a topic delivered by a lead-off speaker, followed by participants speaking about how that topic relates to their own lives or about other experiences in their lives. Participants are not required to speak, but when they do, they are encouraged to share their own experience, strength and hope, focusing on their own life without gossip or criticism of one another.
