I’ve been attending AA meetings for 50 years, but AA meetings were not my program of recovery. The suggested program of recovery is the 12 Steps. There are AA meetings that study the dynamics of the 12 Steps from the textbook Alcoholics Anonymous and from a text called the 12 steps and 12 traditions (12x12).

See Chapter 5, “HOW IT WORKS, Page 59 in the textbook Alcoholics Anonymous, it will tell you what the AA program is.

It sounds like you’re off to a great start, welcome!

Hi.
This is good solid info that works IF we work it. Not to negate the above, it was suggested to me to also STUDY the first 164 pages of the BB over and over. That was a good suggestion for me and many others.

BE WELL
