Your Bridge to Recovery
International Lawyers in Alcoholics Anonymous is a group of recovered lawyers and judges carrying the message of recovery within our profession.
Our Purpose
is to act as a bridge to Alcoholics Anonymous for reluctant lawyers, judges, law students, and other legal professionals.
Our own experiences and 12 step work have demonstrated that lawyers and judges are concerned about their anonymity if they attend AA. Once denial of the substance abuse problem is overcome, there still remains the reluctance to “go public” by attending AA meetings.
Finding Help
If you would like to learn more about Alcoholics Anonymous please visit: http://www.aa.org. Local AA meetings for recovering lawyers are held across the country. You can Contact Us and send us an email and we will put you in contact with a recovering lawyer in your area.
Perspective
By sharing our own experiences, ILAA members demonstrate that “going AA public” is not so bad and in fact is necessary for continued (one-day-at-a-time) sobriety.
Confidence
Call it group therapy—call it what you will—IT WORKS!!
