12-Step Programs

Twelve-step programs have long been an important part of the recovery process and the basis for many recovery programs. Developed over over 67 years ago by a small group of alcoholics, the AA program provides simple tools for living based on a set of spiritual principles and a reliance on the fellowship of men and women who share their experience and offer their support as part of a lifelong process of recovery. This approach has since been adapted for the treatment of many other addictions, and now includes other self-supporting fellowships such NA.

The site provides an online list of central offices and groups in the U.S. and Canada, meeting contact information, a description of the 12-steps and traditions, a listing of AA literature and a bulletin board. Some drug addicts prefer AA to other groups as they consider alcohol to be a drug. There are 6 AA meetings on Moloka’i!

Al anon Family Groups http://www.al-anon.alateen.org At Al‑Anon Family Group meetings, the friends and family members of problem drinkers share their experiences and learn how to apply the principles of the Al‑Anon program to their individual situations.
They learn that they are not alone in the problems they face, and that they have choices that lead to greater peace of mind, whether the drinker continues to drink or not.  Sponsorship gives members an opportunity to get personal support from someone more experienced in the program. These relationships are voluntary. Members ask another member to be their Sponsor when they believe that person will be suitable as a mentor in applying the program.  The Twelve Steps, the Twelve Traditions, the Twelve Concepts of Service are Al-Anon’s three Legacies. The spiritual principles of the Al-Anon program derive from these Legacies.  Yes…There is an Al-anon meeting on Moloka’i.

Just stay in the boat- sobriety is awesome!
