Outreach to Professionals
The 2024 Al‑Anon Membership Survey indicates that 43 percent of Al‑Anon members were referred to the program by a professional. Professionals include doctors, therapists, religious leaders, nurses, attorneys, police, educators, and judges. Professionals also work in various facilities and institutions. We try to inform them what Al‑Anon is and how to find us, so that they can refer their clients/patients to us. Numerous service tools are available to aid members in carrying the Al‑Anon/Alateen message to the professional community.
Listed here are some of the service tools available for your use. Please note that some tools listed are available on‑line; others can be ordered from your local Literature Distribution Center (LDC) or the WSO.
