S.O.S Al-Anon Open Meeting

Alachua Club

If someone else’s drinking has affected your life, you are welcome here. S.O.S. is an Al-Anon Family Group that meets weekly in Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island. Meetings are free, confidential, and open to newcomers. Al-Anon is a mutual support fellowship for families and friends of alcoholics. It is not AA, and it is not for the person with the drinking problem. It is for the people whose lives have been affected by someone else’s drinking — whether that person is a spouse, parent, child, sibling, friend, partner, or loved one.
