A twelve-step program is a self-help group whose members attempt recovery from various addictions and compulsions through the use of a plan referred to as the 12 steps. The first such program was Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), which was begun in 1935 by Bill Wilson. He established the tradition within the "Anonymous" 12-step programs of using only his first name. The 12 Steps were originally written by Wilson and other early members of AA to codify the process that they felt had worked for them personally. This "codex" is the book "Alcoholics Anonymous", often referred to as the "Big Book". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12-step_program Feb 19 04, 9:13 AM
