A 12-Step Alternative

When people push us to change before we are ready, our instinct is often to dig in and hold on–even when we know that change is needed. This group supports its members to take the steps toward change they are ready to take, without pressure or ultimatums. All that is required for membership is a desire to reduce or stop the use of substances or addictive behaviors. This group provides a much-needed alternative for people who do not fit well with the 12-step program due to past trauma, social anxiety, difficulty with large groups/ strangers.
