Who We Are
Following is the definition of A.A. appearing in the fellowship's basic
literature and cited frequently at meetings of A.A. groups:
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. Copyright © by The A.A.

Alcoholics Anonymous can also be defined as an informal society of more
than 2,000,000 recovered alcoholics in the United States, Canada, and
other countries. These men and women meet in local groups, which range
in size from a handful in some localities to many hundreds in larger
communities.
