Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous is a Twelve Step,
Twelve Tradition-oriented fellowship based on the model pioneered
by Alcoholics Anonymous.
The only qualification for S.L.A.A. membership
is a desire to stop living out a pattern of sex and love addiction.
S.L.A.A. is supported entirely through the contributions of its
membership, and is free to all who need it.
To counter the destructive consequences of sex
and love addiction we draw on five major resources:
- Sobriety. Our willingness to stop acting out in our own
personal bottom-line addictive behavior on a daily basis.
- Sponsorship/Meetings. Our capacity to reach out for the
supportive fellowship within S.L.A.A.
- Steps. Our practice of the Twelve Step program of recovery
to achieve sexual and emotional sobriety.
- Service. Our giving back to the S.L.A.A. community what
we continue to freely receive.
- Spirituality. Our developing a relationship with a Power
greater than ourselves which can guide and sustain us in recovery.
As a fellowship S.L.A.A. has no opinion on outside issues and
seeks no controversy. S.L.A.A. is not affiliated with any other
organizations, movements or causes, either religious or secular.
We are, however, united in a common focus: dealing
with our addictive sexual and emotional behavior. We find a common
denominator in our obsessive/compulsive patterns which renders any
personal differences of sexual or gender orientation irrelevant.
We need protect with special care the anonymity
of every S.L.A.A. member. Additionally, we try to avoid drawing
undue attention to S.L.A.A. as a whole from the public media.
