Thank You for Your Feedback

Thank you to everyone who completed the recent In The Loop survey. We appreciate your feedback and continued engagement.

Based on what members shared, the World Service Office (WSO) will be introducing several enhancements to In The Loop beginning in January. While those updates are still being finalized, we're making one change right away: starting in October, In The Loop will move from two scheduled emails per month to one monthly newsletter. 

We look forward to sharing more in the months ahead!

Falling back to Standard Time! 

As Daylight Saving Time ends in North America on Sunday, November 1st, Al‑Anon Family Groups Mobile App (AFG Mobile App) meeting times might be temporarily affected. The World Service Office (WSO) is working diligently to ensure a smooth transition and overcome the challenges of managing these biannual changes.

Your patience is greatly appreciated, and members can rest assured that we will monitor the meetings throughout the day to quickly resolve any issues. We encourage participants to confirm meeting times within the AFG Mobile App as close to the meeting time as possible.
