• Interested in revitalizing Al-Anon service in your Area?
  • Could your Area use a refresher on the links of service?
  • Do you have a new panel that might benefit from some service inspiration?
  • Are you connected with a growing Spanish-speaking District that would appreciate encouragement and support?
  • Are there any vacant Area roles where some renewed enthusiasm could make a difference?

Inviting World Service Office (WSO) Staff and Volunteers to your Area Assembly or Convention can be a meaningful way to deepen our shared commitment to Al-Anon’s spiritual principles and service legacy.

These visits offer so much more than information; they bring the gift of experience, strength, and hope. Whether your Area is welcoming a new panel, exploring the links of service, or nurturing growth in a Spanish-speaking District, the presence of WSO representatives can help illuminate our service paths with clarity, experience and encouragement.

Their participation can foster unity and understanding, helping Areas navigate service challenges with grace and mutual respect. Through open dialogue and shared experience, trusted servants are reminded that we are never alone in service and that our fellowship extends far beyond our local boundaries.

If you are interested in inviting a WSO Staff member or Volunteer to your Area in person or virtually, follow your Area’s established process. These connections can renew enthusiasm, strengthen collaboration, and deepen our spiritual connection to the worldwide fellowship of Al-Anon Family Groups.

These visits can serve as a beautiful reminder that “Together We Can Make It!”
