About AA – Alcoholics Anonymous
AA groups operate within their communities by providing peer-led substance abuse support and education services to their members. In addition to group support, clients work with an individual sponsor, usually a senior group member, who acts as direct support. It should be noted that these are not medical services, but clients may refer one another to such programs.
The 12 Step model is designed to help clients navigate the concepts and changes that will help them recover from addiction and develop the skills they need to avoid relapse. With the help of their peers, clients navigate, explore, and learn how personal accountability, self-compassion, relapse prevention, forgiveness, life and coping skills, and spirituality can lead to and maintain a life in recovery.
AA groups do not require payment to participate. However, clients may also be interested in joining a private recovery program, which often works with private insurance plans, such as Magellan, Bright Health, Wellmark, Ambetter, and Aetna. Clients should always confirm coverage before enrolling, as out-of-network benefits may vary.

Levels of Care
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Programs
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress.
