Healing for every journey, Hope for every community
A form of therapy which provides individuals with twelve clear steps aimed at transformation and recovery. These steps are structured and will help an individual transform their life.

A 2020 study by Stanford University suggests that 12-Step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) may be at least as effective as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and other scientifically-based interventions for alcohol use disorder. Specifically, participants in 12-Step programs had a higher likelihood of abstinence compared to other treatments, with some studies finding that AA is significantly better than other interventions.
