Alcoholics Anonymous
Australia 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 A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own
contributions. A.A. 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.
