I'm looking for an organization who can help my khmer friend with alcoholism that's destroying her life and the lives of her children.
she is a woman in her 40's. Any recommendations?

I think there is some Khmer AA literature now.

Contact the local AA chapter, they have the materials.

I think Friends on St. 13 has some contacts, too.

A waste of time unless she seeks help herself.

you might not be a fan of AA,but you cant deny it works.....FYI ,its a Higher Power ,not a God,that can be anything of your choosing......AA saves lives,maybe it can save hers(and her kids)
