Tradition 6 states, although Al-Anon is a separate entity we should always cooperate with AA. In the spirit of this, as well as our Al-Anon members with loved ones in AA and our dual member, AA events will be posted on the EVENTS page at various times. Such as the Annual AA Convention with Al-Anon participation currently being held in Jacksonville, FL in August 2021.
