Please consider sharing your gifts and talents with the worldwide fellowship by applying for Trustee before the August 15, 2026, deadline.

August 2026 Appeal Letter

In February, May, August, and November, the Quarterly Appeal gives each member an opportunity to participate individually in Twelfth‑Step work beyond the group level.

New Topic for the Member Blog
|
Service positions beyond the group level like Group Representative, Convention Committee, or Intergroup Volunteer can enrich your recovery and support our fellowship. August’s member blog invites you to share: Which service role beyond the group level interests you and why?
You may also reflect on Step Eight, Tradition Eight, and Concept Eight.
Sharings on the Member Blog may be used in future Al‑Anon publications.
New topics are being added each month!
