Whatcom County Al-Anon
Alateen is for teens affected by someone else's drinking
Alateen meetings are held in person and electronically.
What is Alateen?
Alateen is a place where members come together to:
-
share experiences, strength, and hope with each other to find effective ways to cope with problems.
-
discuss difficulties and encourage one another
-
help each other understand the principles of the Al-Anon program through the use of the Twelve Steps and Alateen’s Twelve Traditions
Alateen is not a place:
-
For teenagers seeking help for drinking or drug problems or a therapy program
-
to complain about parents or anyone else.
-
A social hangout.
