Al-Anon

Helping orphans the way you would do it
The Al-Anon Family Groups (AFG) is a non-political volunteer organisation of relatives and friends of alcoholics who share their experience, strength, and hope, in order to solve their common problems. They believe that alcoholism is a family illness and that changed attitudes can aid recovery.

AFG practices the Twelve Step method for rehabilitating alcoholics.

Alateen is a part of AFG which helps teens who live with, or are influenced by, recovering or practicing alcoholics.
