Letter to Professionals
Dear Community Professional,
In your professional role, you may be familiar with Alcoholics Anonymous, better known as
A.A. You may have
clients, employees, colleagues or others whom you recognize to have a problem with alcohol
and would like to steer
toward A.A.
The purpose of the A.A. Committee for Cooperation with the Professional Community is to be
"friendly with our friends" in
all walks of life that may have professional contact with the alcoholic. We want the A.A.
message of
personal recovery to reach those who desire our help.
Simply stated, Alcoholics Anonymous is a worldwide fellowship of men and women-over two
million of them-who help
each other maintain sobriety and who offer to share their recovery experience with others.
Anyone who thinks he or she has
a problem, is welcome at an A.A. meeting. The only requirement for A.A. membership is a
desire to stop drinking.
Should you have questions about A.A., we can put you in contact with one of our members
who would be glad to answer your questions on
A.A. personally. He or she is also available to introduce your clients or colleagues to
our fellowship.
In addition, there is more information about our fellowship available in A.A. literature.
The enclosed list offers a few of
the services in which you may be interested. This list, returned to us by mail or email
message with your selections, will be
promptly replied to with a phone call to arrange an answer to your request in the manner
most convenient to you. If you simply
want us to mail this information, please indicate this with your address in the response.
