Alcohol abuse affects many people every day. This includes the friends and family members of the alcoholic. There are many options for people in Carefree, Arizona that want to stop alcohol from taking over their life.
What is Alcoholics Anonymous?
Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A.) is an international group of men and women who have dealt with a drinking problem. Each group within the organization is independent and self-supporting. There are no dues required but each group can take a collection to pay for a location to meet. The only requirement to be part of an AA group is the desire to stop drinking.
Alcoholics Anonymous is not a professional program. Each group is peer-led. Individuals may have a sponsor to help them learn the 12-step process and encourage them through the recovery process. This personal support can make a big difference to keep an alcohol addict on the right path. There are several AA meetings in or near Carefree, Arizona each week.
What is Al-Anon?
Al-Anon is a support group for people who have been affected by someone else’s alcohol use disorder. Al-Anon was created in 1951 for the families of alcoholics to support one another. Al-Anon is not for the person who has a drinking problem.
Al-Anon also uses a 12-step process. It is almost identical to the AA 12-step process. The members of the group share their experiences and coping strategies with each other. There are a few meetings in or near Carefree, Arizona each week.
