5 Alternatives to the AA Approach

Welcome to the Sober is Dope Podcast with your host, POP Buchanan. This episode is for anyone that may be looking for an alternative to AA, or 12 Step Programs. As your host, I am a big advocate of the efficacy of Alcoholic Anonymous, but I wanted to give the community some alternatives to traditional 12 step programs. We love AA, and this episode is intended as no disrespect to the AA community. Thank you 5 Alternatives to the AA Approach By Alcohol.org There are several alternatives to the 12-Step AA approach that may work better for some individuals. Five alternatives to AA include: SMART Recovery: Smart Management and Recovery Training focuses on empowering the individual to sustain recovery. LifeRing: This secular group provides a healthy network of peers focused on remaining abstinent from drugs and alcohol. Women for Sobriety (WFS): This nonprofit, abstinence-based program is made up of women supporting each other in recovery. SOS. (Secular Organizations for Sobriety): This nonprofit network is made up of secular recovery-based groups. Moderation Management (MM): This program is not based on abstinence but instead on learning how to moderate and control problem drinking behaviors.
