Help and Hope for Families & Friends of Alcoholics.
Aide et espoir pour les familles et les amis des alcooliques.
Ayuda y esperanza para familias y amigas de alcohólicos.
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.

Cocaine Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other, so that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from their addiction.
The best way to reach someone is to speak to them on a common level. The members of C.A. are all recovering addicts who maintain their individual sobriety by working with others. We come from various social, ethnic, economic and religious backgrounds, but what we have in common is addiction
The only requirement for membership is the desire to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances.
Anyone who wants to stop using cocaine and all other mind-altering substances (including alcohol and other drugs) is welcome.
Our primary purpose is to stay free from cocaine and all other mind-altering substances and to help others achieve the same freedom. We use the Twelve Step Recovery Program; because it has already been proven that the Twelve Step Recovery Program works.

We are most fortunate to have such a wonderful Archives! Through the generous gifts of many and the hard work of others, Arkansas has one of the finest Al-Anon Archives around.
Some may wonder why we bother to document and preserve our past. The answer is quite simple – we look to the past to protect the future.

We have many, many wonderful artifacts at the Archives, including literature, audio recordings, Area Convention items, and even personal items belonging to Lois, including her house robe and an autographed copy of her book, Lois Remembers, which she gave as a gift to her friend who later donated it to the Arkansas Archives along with a personal note from Lois.
Pictures of several other items are shown here, but they really only scratch the surface of the wonderful treasure trove of items available for viewing at the Archives.
Please take time to visit and enjoy the wonderful history that has been preserved, and consider donating time and money to help continue the effort for those that come after us.

(the first Editor of The Forum ). It is now available as a free audio MP3 download on the Members website. This 110-minute interview includes much more information than the 22-minute DVD version.

At 2:00pm on November 4, 1962, an organizational meeting was held at 120 1/2 group headquarters at 1321 Scott Street in Little Rock, AR; the meeting having been called by Temporary Chairman, Ethel E.. The purpose of the meeting was to set up the State Assembly for the Al-Anon Family Groups of Arkansas. There were nine group representatives present and six group members. First elected state officers were:
“After taking the Chair, Edna asked that each group representative try to give at least some indication of what her group would be able to contribute toward the $225 that is necessary for the Arkansas groups to raise toward the expenses of our Delegate.
Though at this time not all were able to make definite commitments for their group, it appears that we have around $175 promised, which will leave $50 additional that will have to be raised in the state.”
