Tradition Eight
"Alcoholics Anonymous should remain forever nonprofessional,
but our service centers may employ special workers
."

Every time we have tried to professionalize our Twelfth Step, the
result has been exactly the same: Our single purpose has been
defeated. Alcoholics simply will not listen to a paid twelfth-stepper.
Almost from the beginning, we have been positive that face-to-face
work with the alcoholic who suffers could be based only on the
desire to help and be helped.

- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, (Tradition Eight) p. 166
 

Thought to Ponder . . .
Sobriety is the adventure of a lifetime.
And it begins the moment we ask AA for help.

 

AA-related 'Alconym'
H E L P  =   Hope, Encouragement, Love, Patience.
