AlAnon and AlAteen

About AlAnon and AlAteen – West Memphis, Arkansas

AlAnon and Alateen is a drug and alcohol addiction recovery support group in West Memphis, Arkansas. This organization provides 12-Step outpatient support groups for family members of individuals who are addicted to alcohol.

Alateen is for children of alcoholics, while AlAnon is open to any family member or loved one. Using the spiritual principles of the 12 Steps, these groups use a higher power, peer-to-peer support, and sponsorship as a way to find support and understand their role in the life of someone with addiction.

Members learn that alcoholism is a disease and learn how they can detach themselves emotionally from the drinker’s problems while continuing to love the person. They also learn that they are not the cause of anyone else’s drinking or behavior, that they cannot change or control anyone but themselves, and that they have spiritual and intellectual resources with which to develop their own potential. They discover how to build satisfying and rewarding life experiences for themselves. Meetings are offered at various locations, days, and times and cover a variety of topics. Meetings are free.
