FOREVER YOUNG

IN parts of Southern California, it's not uncommon for 13-, 14-, 15- and 16-year old boys and girls simply to walk into AA meetings. There are about 25 active young people's committees in California, busily showing thousands of young AAs that recovery involves service and having fun without drinking. Still, according to our latest membership survey, in 2007 only 2.3 percent of AA members were under 21 years old.
