Alateen
Alateen Meetings are open to those ages 12 through 20 who have been affected by the family disease of alcoholism. The meetings are designed to be a safe place to share experience, strength, and hope. Meetings are run by teenagers just like you.
Alateen is a place where members come together to:
-
share experiences, strength, and hope with each other to find effective ways to cope with problems.
-
discuss difficulties and encourage one another
-
help each other understand the principles of the Al-Anon program through the use of the Twelve Steps and Alateen’s Twelve Traditions
