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 AA 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.  Copyright © The AA Grapevine, Inc. Reprinted with permission.

This we owe to A.A.'s future; to place our common welfare first; to keep our
fellowship united.  For on A.A. unity depend our lives, and the lives of
those to come.
