Al-Anon
2014-09-25 19:00 - 20:30 | BMH Tyler Conference Room, 17 Belmont Ave, Brattleboro, VT, United States
In Al-Anon, members do not give direction or advice to other members. Instead, they share their personal experiences and stories, and invite other members to “take what they like and leave the rest”—that is, to determine for themselves what lesson they could apply to their own lives. The best place to learn how Al-Anon works is at an Al-Anon meeting in your local community. Personal contact is an important element in the healing process.
