MISSION STATEMENT

We, the staff and volunteers involved with Alaska Mat-Su District 11 subscribe and strive to A.A.’s Responsibility Pledge as stated ” “I am responsible …When anyone, anywhere, reaches out for help, I want the hand of A.A. always to be there. And for that, I am responsible.”

So, for visitors and local folks needing help with alcoholism we hope our website can provide you with meeting schedules, literature and the most important component; one alcoholic sharing with another alcoholic.

A.A.’s Preamble states that Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from Alcoholism. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking.There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization, or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy, neither endorses or opposes any causes. Our Primary Purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

A.A. Declaration of Unity

This we owe to A.A.’s future: To place our common welfare first; To keep our fellowship united. For on A.A. unity depend our lives, And the lives of those to come.
