Let it begin with me, When anyone, anywhere reaches out for help,
Let the hand of Al-Anon and Alateen always be there, and Let it begin with me!
-Al-Anon/Alateen Declaration
We welcome you to the official Southern New York Area Al-Anon web site.
The Al-Anon/Alateen 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 that alcoholism is a family illness and that changed attitudes can aid recovery. Al-Anon’s primary purpose is to help family and friends of alcoholics, whether the alcoholic is still drinking or not.
Southern New York Al-Anon/Alateen serves the following counties and boroughs: Bronx, Brooklyn, Dutchess, Manhattan, Nassau, Orange, Putnam, Queens, Rockland, Suffolk, Sullivan, Staten Island, Ulster, and Westchester. Meetings are free, anonymous and confidential. No appointments are necessary. Go To Meeting Lists
Al-Anon is a worldwide fellowship with millions of members in over 27,000 groups. Alateen, which is part of the Al-Anon fellowship, is for younger members.
