Welcome to Whatcom County Al-Anon/Alateen
The Al-Anon Family Groups are a fellowship of relatives and friends of
alcoholics who share their experience, strength, and hope, in order to solve
their common problems. We believe alcoholism is a family illness, and that
changed attitudes can aid recovery.
Al-Anon is not allied with any sect, denomination, political entity,
organization, or institution; does not engage in any controversy, neither
endorses nor opposes any cause. There are no dues for membership. Al-Anon is
self-supporting through its own voluntary contributions.
Al-Anon has but one purpose: to help families of alcoholics. We do this by
practicing the Twelve Steps, by welcoming and giving comfort to families of
alcoholics, and by giving understanding and encouragement to the alcoholic.
