12-step recovery programs  

Définition(s)

  • The term 12-step program refers to an organization that offers support to those dealing with an addiction or compulsion using the model first developed by Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Twelve-step programs are named for the 12 steps of recovery, originally written by the early members of AA. Common elements of 12-step programs include mutual support among those with a specific addiction or compulsion, understanding the addiction or compulsion as an illness, finding strength in reliance upon a power greater than oneself, self-examination, service to others with the same condition, a singleness of purpose, and bottom-up self-governance.
