You won’t find the definition in the dictionary, but it is being used world wide.  It is a synonym for a place that recovery groups get together for 12 Step meetings, attend a function, or just sitting and chatting.  Some Alanos have restaurants and game rooms. Some are open 24 hours. Currently we are offering a place for 12 Step meetings only and an occasional special function.

The American River Alano is a 501(c)(3) corporation.  Our charter and mission is to provide meeting space for 12 step recovery groups.  All membership dues and donations are tax deductible.  With your help and support we could own our own building and grow accordingly.

Everyone and anyone can contribute. This is an opportunity to help the community, find donations, and recruit members. You don’t have to be a member to donate, any support is welcome.  To donate Click here
