Welcome to Manhattan General Service
Alcoholics Anonymous
Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people 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 A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination politics organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses not opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics achieve sobriety

Manhattan General Service is part of Area 49, South Eastern New York (SENY). In SENY, we have a county service structure. The county structure includes one linguistic Hispanic district which serves all Hispanic groups in SENY. In some counties (about half) the county is divided into districts. In these counties, districts meet separately from the county meeting. In other counties (about another half) the county serves as the district. In one county, the districts hold district meetings at the county meeting. All of the counties and the linguistic Hispanic district have a District Committee Member Chair (DCMC).
