What is a 12 Step Call?

A 12-step call is a meeting held by a group that follows the 12-step program, a set of guiding principles for recovery from addiction, compulsions, or other behavioral issues. The 12-step program is based on the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), and it is used by many different self-help groups, including Narcotics Anonymous (NA) and Cocaine Anonymous (CA).

12-step calls are usually held on a regular basis and are open to anyone who is interested in attending. They may be held in person, over the phone, or online. During a 12-step call, participants share their experiences, strength, and hope with one another and discuss their progress in recovery. These calls can be a supportive and confidential environment where people can discuss their struggles and find encouragement and guidance from others who are also working to overcome addiction or other behavioral issues.

12-step programs are not for everyone, and they may not be the right fit for everyone. It’s important to find a treatment approach that works for you and meets your individual needs. If you are struggling with addiction or other behavioral issues and are seeking support, it may be helpful to speak with a healthcare professional or a licensed therapist who can help you explore your options and find the right treatment path for you.
