QUICK LINKSClick on the blue bars below to open pertinent information. There is a solution. You no longer have to live like this. You are not alone. You are not the first. If you think you have a drinking problem, and are looking to get to a meeting of alcoholics anonymous, we hope that this website will help you. 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. Alcohólicos Anónimos® es una comunidad internacional de hombres y mujeres que en un tiempo tenían un problema con la bebida. No es profesional, es automantenida, no está afiliada a ninguna secta religiosa, es multirracial, apolítica, y puede encontrarse casi en todas partes. Cualquier persona que quiera hacer algo respecto a su problema con la bebida puede hacerse miembro.

We who are in A.A. came because we finally gave up trying to control our drinking. We still hated to admit that we could never drink safely. Then we heard from other A.A. members that we were sick. (We thought so for years!) We found out that many people suffered from the same feelings of guilt and loneliness and hopelessness that we did. We found out that we had these feelings because we had the disease of alcoholism.* |
HOW IS CENTRAL OFFICE FUNDED?“Central Office, like AA, is self-supporting. Bookstore operations and donations from Intergroup & General Service subsidize less thanone-third of Central Office’s annual expenses.
CENTRAL OFFICE FUND DRIVE
January 1st to April 16th 2010
OUR CENTRAL OFFICE IS THE HEARTBEAT OF YOUR A.A. COMMUNITY
It is in fact the central office of our local AA service structure and the face of AA in Sarasota and Manatee County. It was established in 1986 to carry the AA message to the suffering alcoholic as well as provide information about AA to the community, supply AA literature and support to people wanting to be, or already in recovery. It provides an informational web site, a place for Help line volunteers to answer the phone, and space for Intergroup, General Services and their respective committees to meet and conduct business and more.
