This is the official
web site for the District 15/ Intergroup located within
Area 1 (Alabama/Northwest Florida). District 15 is
located in the Florida Panhandle and covers both Bay and
Gulf counties. The primary purpose of this web site is to
carry the message of A.A. For those seeking a meeting, we
have provided our schedule and meeting locations. There is
information for those new to A.A. or those that think they
might have a drinking problem. We have also provided a link
to the A.A.
General Service Office web site where additional
information on the program of A.A. can be found. If you're a
family member or friend of an alcoholic and their drinking
is having an adverse affect on your life then
Al-Anon can
help; their primary purpose is to help the families of
alcoholics.

AA Preamble
Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship
of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with
each other that they may solve their common problem and help others
to recover from alcoholism.
The only requirement for membership
is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for AA
membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. AA
is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or
institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy, neither
endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay
sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.
