ABOUT

Addicts Anonymous was first conceptualized in 1947 by Bill W. the co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous. Bill W. knew that another fellowship with broader requirements for membership was needed since AA’s membership was limited to Alcoholics. In 1948 Addict Anonymous failed to draw the necessary support to keep it going.

Addict Anonymous has now reemerged and is growing into the newest 12 step fellowship because of our all inclusive first step. We believe that using any and all mind-altering substances, practicing addictive behaviors are the symptom to our problem and that through a new approach from an age old concept can help us all recover. Unlike the preceding 12 step programs which are all rather specific by their name, we are Addicts Anonymous helping the addict is our primary purpose. We don't care if it was meth, pot, heroin, cocaine, alcohol, pills, food, sex or gambling or something we've never heard of - if its a mind altering substance or addicted behavior, your welcome here. We say that if you need some kind of outside thing to fix an inside problem this is the program for you. Join us.
