Al-Anon is the BEST thing she could do to support herself (and SECONDLY) you. I'm not sure how long you have been in recovery, but if you are working a good program, and secure in your program, she should just go to Al-Anon (assuming she's not an alcoholic). Going to AA every now and then is OK, but it very different from having her own program, completely separate from yours.
