Al-Anon has but one purpose: to help families of alcoholics. We do this by practicing the Twelve Steps, by welcoming and giving comfort to families of alcoholics, and by giving understanding and encouragement to the alcoholic.
Please feel welcome to join us whether here online at our daily meetings or in the place where you live - where you are likely to find face to face meetings. Many of us utilize both opportunities.

Awesome stuff WP. I also copied an old post of mine on the same subject, as I think it is still relevant today.....
For anyone visiting this site as a beginner:
Our program is based on The Serenity Prayer:
God grant us the serenity
To accept the things we cannot change,
Courage to change the things we can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
Suggested preamble to the Twelve Steps:
