Preamble

Suicide Anonymous is a fellowship in which we share our experience, strength, and
hope with each other, that we may solve our common problem and help others to
recover from suicidal ideation and behavior.

The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop living out a pattern of suicidal
ideation and behavior.
Membership is open to all who want it. There are no dues or fees for SA membership;
we are self-supporting through our own contributions.
To counter the destructive consequences of suicidal ideation and behavior we draw on
four major resources:
1. Our willingness to stop acting out in our own, personal, Bottom-line behavior on a       
           daily basis.
2. Our capacity to reach out for the supportive fellowship within SA.
3. Our practice of the Twelve Step program of recovery to achieve sobriety.
4. Our developing a relationship with a Power Greater than ourselves which can             
            sustain us in recovery.
We need to protect with special care the anonymity of every SA member. Additionally,
we try to avoid drawing undue attention to SA.
As a fellowship, SA has no opinion on outside issues and seeks no controversy. SA is
not affiliated with any other organizations, movements, or causes.
