About Al Anon Family Groups

Al-Anon Family Groups are all over the country. It’s a fellowship for families hurt by alcoholism. Sometimes the best way to get support is to reach out to other families in the same boat. This particular group is in Boise, Idaho. Here, you’ll get the chance to meet others, share and learn from each other, and heal.

Al-Anon isn’t specific when it comes to formatting. There’s online meetings and live meetups. It all depends on your comfort level and which ones appeal to you. You can join one or many groups. It’s all up to you.

They have a lot of meetings each day in the mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends. Some meetings are for specific groups, like women or Spanish speakers, while others might focus on spiritual healing or reading books about recovery. There may be motivational speakers or an open forum. It’s ok if you can’t make every meeting for your group. Check out the calendars listed on Al-Anon’s Idado website for updates and details.

One special type of Al-Anon group is Alateens. This is a youth network made up of kids and teens who are emotionally and psychologically hurt by a family member’s drinking. These meetings are supervised by parents. They’re also held online or in person.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more.

The place is very dirty, very small and it is uncomfortable to have to attend the program like that. Not recommended!
