A.A.'s Purpose
The 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.
