The home where hope lives

The historic home of Bill and Lois Wilson (1966) is a privately run National Historic Landmark with tours by reservation. The couple hosted many guests — often unannounced — for coffee and comradeship in the kitchen.

The low-profile home base of AA/Al-Anon cofounders Bill and Lois Wilson is alive and thriving in Northern Westchester.

The early 20th century house is much the same as when Bill and Lois Wilson lived there starting in 1939, but the foundation that owns it has added the technology to broaden its reach. Here’s my article on a visit I paid to the home this past winter.
