Al-Anon And AlaTeen Come To South Brunswick

SOUTH BRUNSWICK, NJ — Is someone's drinking bothering you? Al-Anon and AlaTeen can help.

Starting January 8, Al-Anon will officially come to South Brunswick. Aaron Millman, a student assistance counselor at South Brunswick High School, has worked very hard in the past year to establish Alanon and Alateen in the South Brunswick community.

Al-Anon is a confidential fellowship of relatives and friends of alcoholics. After all, alcoholism "is a family disease." At meetings, they share experiences, strength and hope; discuss difficulties; learn effective ways to cope with problems and encourage one another in recovery.

Starting Jan. 8, they will meet at 8:00 p.m. on Wednesdays at St. Barnabas Episcopal Church 142 Sand Hill Rd., Monmouth Junction.

Alateen is a confidential fellowship of teenage relatives and friends of alcoholics. It is open to teens ages 12-19. "Alateen makes me feel like I am not the only one who has a problem.”- Becky. They meet in the same place, Wednesdays at St. Barnabas.

Questions on either group? Text Barbara @732 881 4438 or Cynthia @732 690 5195.
