Alcoholics Anonymous Cleveland District Office
Our organization
Alcoholics Anonymous Cleveland District Office is an Ohio non-profit corporation established in 1945 to provide a physical location for Alcoholics Anonymous in Cuyahoga County. It is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
This is where the "Twelfth Step" phones are answered and members can get A.A. literature and information.
Alcoholics Anonymous Cleveland District Office is not affiliated with the General Service Office of Alcoholics Anonymous, A.A. World Services or the AA Grapevine.
