Cocaine Anonymous is a twelve-step program for people who seek recovery from drug addiction. It is patterned very closely after Alcoholics Anonymous, although the two groups are unaffiliated.
Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered, 12 step recovery program for anyone struggling with hurt, pain or addiction of any kind.
Secular Organizations for Sobriety (SOS) is a program that stresses the need to place the highest priority on sobriety and uses mutual support to assist members in achieving this goal. SOS represents an alternative to the spiritually-based addiction recovery programs.
