ANONYMITY
The
principle of anonymity is a safeguard for the Al-Anon fellowship. This
means that all Al-Anon and Alateen members are anonymous within the
fellowship as well as at the level of press, radio, and TV.
It is the choice of the Al-Anon and Alateen member as to how anonymous they wish
to be with friends, co-workers, community professionals and others.
This assures that no one will use Al-Anon for power, profit, or
prestige.
Anonymity
gives members and potential members confidence that their identity will
not be revealed within Al-Anon. When
speaking as Al-Anon/Alateen members at the level of press, radio, TV or
films, members only use first names or pseudonyms.
Faces should not be recognizable in photographs for publication in
newspapers or magazines.
This provides a sense of security in the knowledge that nothing
seen or heard in the meetings will be revealed. We
can express ourselves among our Al-Anon/Alateen friends because we can be
certain that what we share will be kept confidential.
Each
member has the right to decide about their personal anonymity within the
fellowship. We meet and share
as equals regardless of social, educational, or financial position.
Anonymity provides the freedom and the security that each member deserves in
Al-Anon/Alateen.
