Local Alcoholics
Anonymous Group
Hears Report
A representative of the local
group of Alcoholics Anonymous re
cently returned from the annual
state assembly of that organization
held in Anchorage and attended by
representatives of AA groups from
throughout the entire state.
Methods of furthering AA’s ef
forts to help the alcoholic who still
suffers from this disabling disease
were discussed and a report was
heard from Alaska’s delegate to
the headquarters of Alcoholics
Anonymous in New York City
where the annual convention of
delegates from the entire United
States and the Provinces of Canada
was held on April 15.
In accordance with AA’s tradi
tion of personal anonymity at the
public level, no names were fur
nished.
Alcoholics Anonymous is a fel
lowship 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 mem
bership is a desire to stop drinking.
There are no dues or fees for A.A.
membership. AA is self-supporting
through its own contributions. AA
is not allied with any sect, denom
ination, politics, organzation or in
stitution; does not wish to engage
in any controversy; neither en
dorses or opposes any causes. The
primary purpose of its members
is to stay sober and help other al
coholics to achieve sobriety.
AA is represented in Kodiak by
the Isle of Hope Group. Contact
may be made by writing to Box
376 or calling 6-5430 or 6-2364 at
any hour of the day or night.
