Doing Life the A.A. Way...

Our Purpose

The Snake River H & I Subcommittee was created to better coordinate the delivery of the A.A. Message to Alcoholics who still suffer from the disease of Alcoholism, but cannot participate in the healing support of traditional A.A. meetings and fellowship because they are confined to hospitals, institutions, and treatment centers. It is our intent, through trusted servants, to deliver the A.A. message of hope and healing to all those who are confined. It is our desire to help all who suffer to understand that there is a solution.

Snake River Hospitals and Institutions Subcommittee Guidelines


A.A. Preamble

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 A.A. membership; we are self supporting through our own contributions. A.A. 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.

Declaration of Unity

This we owe to A.A.'s future:
To place our common welfare first;
To keep our fellowship united.
For on A.A. unity depend our lives,
And the lives of those to come.

Responsibility Declaration

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.
