Treatment for drug addiction or alcoholism provides the addict with a lifelong program to follow and is based on the twelve steps to recovery. The twelve-step drug rehab program will help the addict maintain their sobriety and achieve a healthy lifestyle. These programs help fight the tendency to go back to the people’s places and things by providing an anonymous support group and fellowship with other people in recovery.
Most times it is best for the addicted person to separate themselves from the negative and destructive peer group that they have been accustomed to, by entering into a residential drug and alcohol treatment center. These programs have shown over time to be the most effective treatment for addiction available today for helping people overcome addiction to drugs or alcohol.
Most twelve-step residential drug rehab centers respect all religious practices. There are a few programs that specifically define the higher power but most are non-religious in nature.
Residential treatment programs are not allowed to promote themselves as being a twelve-step program due inherently to the founding nature of the twelve-step program and alcohol anonymous and narcotics anonymous. The traditions require that any group that promotes themselves as a twelve-step program remains anonymous and their only promotion is by way of example and how the members live their lives.
The twelve-step program has adopted a policy of cooperation with no affiliation to other organizations concerned with the problem of addiction to drugs or alcohol.
Most twelve-step drug rehab centers will try to move a client to an aftercare program such as alcohol anonymous or narcotic anonymous.
