Dear Annie: Al-Anon is not the only addiction recovery group

Dear Annie: I read your column recently that had the headline: “Al-Anon offers help, support to many.” You printed a letter from a reader who said that Al-Anon was for family and friends of alcoholics.

I am writing to let your readers know that there is a lesser-known support group called Nar-Anon Family Groups. It is also for family and friends of drug addicts, including alcoholics.

Meetings can be attended virtually, which really helps since there aren’t meetings widely available like with Al-Anon.

Any help that you can give to get the word out and possibly start more in-person groups is greatly appreciated. Here is their website: nar-anon.org — Nar-Anon Booster

Dear Nar-Anon: Thank you for your letter, which I am printing to help get the word out.
