I think it would be great if treatment centers provided information on all the different programs that are available to us. After spending time there will leave with a ton of information that can use to find the best approach for them. If they try AA and it didn't work for them, their back to square one.

How would a rehab be based on AA principles? AA is not group therapy.

I was in rehab and we were expected to attend AA, but the rehab itself did group therapy and psychological counseling. I do not see how a rehab would do AA.

What other models are there?

I have been to rehabs that have meeting there, and others that do not. All the detox centers I have been to have members of AA drop by to discuss the program.
