UNITY.......RECOVERY.......SERVICE
Al-Anon Family Groups provides support to anyone whose life is, or has been, affected by someone else’s drinking. "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." We believe alcoholism affects the whole family, not just the drinker. Al-Anon is a fellowship of relatives and friends of alcoholics who share their experience in order to solve their common problems. A family disease needs family recovery.
"... we discover that no situation is really hopeless, and that it is possible for us to find contentment, and even happiness, whether the alcoholic is still drinking or not."

District 5, is part of the North Florida Area (Area 9) of the World Service
Office of Al-Anon and Alateen. District 5 is made up of meetings in Pasco, Hernando and Citrus Counties.
Al-Anon/Alateen meetings are held every day of the week, at different times and locations, to make it easier for those affected by someone else's drinking to find help. Most meetings last for about one hour and the topics may vary from meeting to meeting. Our program is spiritual by nature; it is NOT religious. Our meetings are often held in churches simply because the rent is cheap.
Please try several different meetings before deciding whether or not Al-Anon is for you.
