AA Preamble
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 AA membership; we are self-supporting through our
own contributions. AA 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.
