Who Is a Member of AA?

Who Is a Member of AA? Who gets to decide whether someone belongs in Alcoholics Anonymous? AA is not reserved for people with a certain background, appearance, belief, social status, length of sobriety, or level of damage. We do not get to separate alcoholics into the worthy and unworthy or decide who deserves recovery. The only requirement for AA membership is a desire to stop drinking. You are a member when you say you are. Today we’ll talk about Tradition Three, why AA cannot afford to become exclusive, and why the door must remain open to every alcoholic who wants help. #TheDailyTrudge #WhoIsAMemberOfAA #AlcoholicsAnonymous #TraditionThree #LanguageOfTheHeart #AARecovery #Recovery #Sobriety #TwelveTraditions #OneDayAtATime
