Alateen Preamble
Alateen, part of the Al-Anon Family Groups, is a fellowship of young people whose lives have been affected by alcoholism
in a family member or close friend. We help each other by sharing our experience, strength and hope.
We believe alcoholism is a family disease because it affects all the members emotionally and sometimes physically. Although
we cannot change or control our parents or friends, we can detach from their problems while continuing to love them.
We do not discuss religion or become involved with any outside organizations. Our sole topic is the solution of our problems.
We are always careful to protect each others anonymity as well as that of all Al-Anon and AA members.

Anyone who has a desire to help teens,

Things To Think About
"When I really want what the program has to offer, I'll do anything to get it. Going to meetings, sharing my problems
with others, working the steps; all these are part of the new way of life I call Alateen. It's mine today if I'm willing to
work for it." Alateen-a Day at a Time, p.93
