Sponsorship:
Every Alateen group needs Al-Anon Sponsors who area minimum of 21 years old, currently attending Al-Anon meetings, are active members of Al-Anon for at least two years in addition to any time spent in Alateen, and meet their area requirements. Sponsors are an active part of the group, guiding, and sharing knowledge of our Twelve Steps and Traditions.
Members of Alateen can also choose to have a personal sponsor, who can be another member of Alateen.
Where Alateens meet:
Alateen members meet in church halls, school rooms or other suitable places (many times in the same building as an Al-Anon group, but in a separate room.)
Alateen Literature:
Members are encouraged to read Al-Anon and Alateen Conference Approved Literature and materials. Written from members’ personal sharings, these recovery tools can help them deal with their problems.
