All Alateen meetings are “closed”, limited to members and other young people who feel their lives have been or are being deeply affected by someone else’s drinking. The only adults who may attend a closed Alateen meeting are sponsors who have been certified as Al‑Anon Members Involved in Alateen Service (AMIAS).

You never need to make advance arrangements to attend a meeting; just show up and you will be warmly welcomed.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, many groups are suspended or have become “virtual” meetings. See the COVID-19 information page for more information, including a schedule and connection instructions for some virtual meetings.

Under the Governor’s Stay Safe order, updating the previous stay-at-home order, face-to-face Al-Anon and Alateen meetings are permitted under restrictions although recovery groups are encouraged to meet virtually or by telephone. Face-to-face meetings are limited to not more than 10 and participants should wear face masks and maintain social distancing – six feet between members. See this FAQ on the Governor’s Stay Safe order. A few groups have restarted, indicated by light yellow in the schedule.

A few group are meeting out-of-doors, maintaining social distancing. If we know about such a meeting, it is indicated in the meeting schedule.

A white background for a group’s entry in the meeting schedule means only that we have no information about whether the group is suspended or virtual except in the few cases where we have learned a group is meeting face-to-face.

Alateen Groups in Schools

In addition to the groups above which are open to any young person affected by someone else’s drinking, there are “limited access” Alateen groups in certain schools. These are open only to students enrolled in the school. At present the following are the only schools which have such groups known to be in compliance with the Alateen Safety Policy. Contact the school for information about meeting time and location.

There is a meeting at Kennedy High School in Bloomington.
There is a Tuesday meeting at Stillwater High School in Stillwater.
There is a Tuesday meeting at Park Center High School in Brooklyn Park (starts Dec. 9).
There is a Wednesday meeting at Minnetonka Middle School East.
Contact the school for more information and to see if a non-student can attend.

Some schools may have support groups for children from homes with alcoholism. However, unless they are fully in compliance with Alateen Safety Policy they are not recognized by Al‑Anon as being Alateen groups.

Are you an Al‑Anon member interested in starting or sponsoring an Alateen group?
