Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOA)

Welcome to ACA. Adult Children of Alcoholics is an anonymous Twelve Step, Twelve Tradition program of women and men who grew up in an alcoholic or otherwise dysfunctional home. We meet in a mutually respectful, safe environment and acknowledge our common experiences. We discover how childhood affected us in the past and influences us in the present (see The Laundry List and The Problem). We take positive action. By practicing the Twelve Steps, focusing on The Solution, and accepting a loving Higher Power of our understanding, we find freedom from the past and a way to improve our lives today.

For over 55 years, Al-Anon (including Alateen for younger members) has offered strength and hope to friends and families of problem drinkers.

No matter what relationship you have with an alcoholic, whether they are still drinking or not, all who have been affected by someone else’s drinking can find solutions that lead to serenity in the Al-Anon/Alateen fellowship.

Have you ever been turned down for a refill?
Have you ever taken other people’s pills with or without their permission, or obtained them illegally?
Have you taken the same pain or sleep medication for a prolonged period of time, only to find you still have the same symptoms?
Have you ever informed your physician which pill works best at which dosage and had them adjust the prescription to your recommendations?

Have you increased the dosage, strength, or frequency of your pills over the past months or years?
Are your pills important to you, e.g., do you worry about refills long before running out?
Do you become annoyed or uncomfortable when others talk about your use of pills?
Have you or anyone else noticed a change of personality when you take your pills or stop taking them?
Have you ever taken your medication before you had the associated symptom?
Have you ever been embarrassed by your behavior when under the influence of your pills?

Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA)

We in S.L.A.A. believe that sex and love addiction is a progressive illness that cannot be cured but which, like many illnesses, can be arrested. It may take several forms—including, but not limited to, a compulsive need for sex, extreme dependency on one or many people, or a chronic preoccupation with romance, intrigue, or fantasy. An obsessive-compulsive pattern, either sexual or emotional, or both, exists in which relationships or sexual activities have become increasingly destructive to career, family, and self-respect. Sex addiction and love addiction, if left unchecked, always get worse. However, we can recover if we follow a simple program that has proven successful for scores of other men and women with the same illness. Only you can determine if you are a sex and love addict.

Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous, or S.L.A.A., is a Twelve Step, Twelve Tradition-oriented Fellowship of men and women who help each other to stay sober. We offer help to anyone who has a sex addiction or love addiction, or both, and wants to do something about it. We, S.L.A.A., have a special understanding of each other and the disease, and we have learned how to recover through The Twelve Steps of S.L.A.A.

Please check the meeting schedule for times and locations.
