What is Debtors
Anonymous?
Debtors Anonymous (D.A.) is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength, and hope with one another that they may solve their common problem and help others recover from compulsive debting. The only requirement for membership in Debtors Anonymous is a desire to stop incurring unsecured debt. There are no dues or fees for D.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. D.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stop debting one day at a time and to help other compulsive debtors to stop incurring unsecured debt.
--Excerpt from the pamphlet Debtors Anonymous
If you are having problems
with money and debt and think that you may be a compulsive debtor, the program
of Debtors Anonymous can help you. We hope you will find the friendship and
understanding we have been privileged to enjoy.
No situation is hopeless. We too were lonely and frustrated, but in D.A. we
have found a solution which leads to solvency and serenity. The program of
Debtors Anonymous is based on the suggested Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous,
which we try one day at a time to apply to our lives.
