Helt fra starten i 1935 har AA samarbeidet godt med folk i presse og andre medier, som har respektert det vi gj\u00f8r og anerkjent tradisjonene v\u00e5re.<br \/>\nVi utgir oss ikke for \u00e5 v\u00e6re eksperter, men vi har unik erfaring b\u00e5de med hva det inneb\u00e6rer \u00e5 v\u00e6re alkoholikere og med \u00e5 f\u00e5 gode, edru liv.\n<p>Prinsippet om anonymitet hindrer oss ikke i \u00e5 snakke med journalister, men vi st\u00e5r ikke fram med navn og bilde. AAs Tjenester\u00e5d har ogs\u00e5 medlemmer som ikke er alkoholikere, og som kan representere oss i offentligheten.<\/p>\n<p>Iflg.

Det er ingen avgifter eller kontingenter for AA-medlemskap. Vi er selvhjulpne gjennom v\u00e5re egne bidrag.
