What is "Alcoholics Anonymous"?
Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is a global fellowship of individuals who have struggled with alcohol addiction and come together to support each other in achieving and maintaining sobriety. Founded in 1935, AA follows a twelve-step program that encourages personal growth, accountability, and spiritual development as a path to recovery. The program involves attending regular meetings where members share their experiences, challenges, and successes in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. AA emphasizes anonymity to protect the privacy of its members and fosters a sense of community and mutual aid.
