Welcome to the Home Page of Central Office of Southwest Missouri.  We hope you will find something you can take away with you and use.  Be it information about your Central Office, meeting information, or just a link to other AA pages.

Alcoholics Anonymous® is a fellowship of men and women 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 AA membership; we are self supporting through our own contributions. AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy, neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

AA preamble reprinted with permission of The A.A. Grapevine, Inc.

"I am Responsible.  When anyone, anywhere, reaches out for help,

I want the hand of A.A. always to be there.

And for that:  I am responsible."

It was written for the 1965 A.A. International Convention in Toronto. In an article titled, ‘How I am Responsible became a part of A.A.’, from the GSO newsletter, Box 4-5-9. The article identifies former AA trustee, Al S. as the author of the Responsibility Statement.
