I don't have my manual with me at work - but we have had this issue come up several times -
In Louisiana - we looked to the Al-Anon Service manual for answers on this issue - I can't remember the page right off the top of my head - but there is a specific paragraph that addresses this issue - I don't remember the words exactly but it's something like each person should decide if the program is for them or not - that we are available to help FRIENDS and FAMILIES - whether the problem is alcohol or another substance -

I'll have to see if I can find the exact statement - but spirit of the statement is that all are welcome to come to the fellowship to use the program to help themselves.

Wishing you the best in your recovery -

PINK HUGS,
Rita
