Family Group Decision Making (FGDM) is families being in charge of their own lives. FGDM is a free process that consists of a meeting where, with the help of the FGDM Coordinator, your family, friends, and other support people meet in a FGDM Conference to create a plan for the best interest of your family members. Family Group Decision Making gives families the power to use their own strengths and energy to create a workable plan rather than professionals setting up a plan.

For over 55 years, Al-Anon (which includes Alateen for younger members) has been offering strength and hope for friends and families of problem drinkers. It is estimated that each alcoholic affects the lives of at least four other people... alcoholism is truly a family disease. No matter what relationship you have with an alcoholic, whether they are still drinking or not, all who have been affected by someone else's drinking can find solutions that lead to serenity in the Al-Anon/Alateen fellowship.
