Description
We believe alcoholism is a family disease that affects everyone in the family. By attending online or in-person meetings, young people gain an understanding of the illness and feel the benefits of realising they are not alone. They learn that they did not cause this problem and that they are not responsible for their relative’s or friend’s drinking or behaviour. Young people share their experiences of having, or having had, a problem drinker in their lives. They help and support each other.

To attend an online meeting you will need access to the Zoom app and be in a quiet place with a good internet signal. Only young people 12-17 years inclusive can be present in the Group so please use earphones if there is anyone nearby that might overhear the meeting. Please join with camera and microphone on so that the Group can see and hear you.
