Overview
Mission
To serve the alcoholic who still suffers by having the hand of AA available to them; we are a service body only, having no authority over any AA members or groups. Central Office also acts as a vehicle for information about the three legacies of AA and the literature available from the General Service Office and the Grapevine. Decisions are arrived at through the use of the twelve traditions and twelve concepts. The main function of the office is to be of maximum service to the alcoholic who reaches out. We maintain a close relationship with local treatment facilities, halfway houses, penal institutions and departments of parole and probation. We do not endorse, finance or lend our name to any facility.

Service to AA members and groups
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
