Default THE TWELVE CONCEPTS & THE WARRANTIES

THE TWELVE CONCEPTS

1 The Ultimate Responsibility and Authority for Al-Anon World Services Belongs to the Al-Anon Groups.
2 The Al-Anon Family Groups have delegated complete administrative and operational authority to their Conference and its service arms.
3 The Right of Decision makes effective leadership possible.
4 Participation is the key to harmony.
5 The Rights of Appeal and Petition protect minorities and assure that they be heard.
6 The Conference acknowledges the primary administrative responsibility of the Trustees.
7 The Trustees have legal rights while the rights of the Conference are traditional.
8 The Board of Trustees delegates full authority for routine management of the Al-Anon Headquarters to its Executive Committees.
9 Good personal leadership at all service levels is a necessity. In the field of world service, the Board of Trustees assumes the primary leadership.
10 Service responsibility is balanced by carefully defined service authority and double-headed management is avoided.
11 The World Service Office is composed of standing committees, executives and staff members.
12 The spiritual foundation for Al-Anon's world services is contained in the General Warranties of the Conference, Article 12 of the Charter.


THE WARRANTIES

In all its proceedings the World Service Conference of Al-Anon shall observe the spirit of the Traditions:

1 that only sufficient operating funds, including an ample reserve, be its prudent financial principle;
2 that no Conference member shall be placed in unqualified authority over other members;
3 that all decisions be reached by discussion, vote, and whenever possible, by unanimity;
4 that no Conference action ever be personally punitive or an incitement to public controversy;
5 that though the Conference serves Al-Anon, it shall never perform any act of government, and that, like the fellowship of Al-Anon Family Groups which it serves, it shall always remain democratic in thought and a ction.

The Concepts and Warranties are reprinted with permission of Al-Anon Family Group Headquarters, Inc.
