About AA – Alcoholics Anonymous – Central Avenue – Hot Springs
The Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) Central Avenue location, in Hot Springs, Arkansas, is a 12 step based community program for adults struggling with addiction. Meetings are conducted in Spanish, and some are open to everyone, while others are limited to AA members working to overcome alcohol use.
Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is a national program with a long history of helping people achieve and maintain sobriety. There are 12 Steps that members follow for sobriety, and there are 12 Traditions that govern how AA operates. There are multiple possible group formats, including discussion, speaker, Big Book, and more. Clients may engage with the community based AA group while enrolled in or after completing a higher intensity alcohol or drug rehab program.
To encourage participants to maintain sobriety and move forward through the 12 steps, they have a sponsor and support from the group. There is also the opportunity to contribute to service projects and learn life skills such as accountability, managing triggers, self care, and deepening their spiritual focus.
Alcoholics Anonymous groups do not have a fee but do accept freewill donations. They may refer participants to additional recovery services that accept major insurance plans, such as Cigna, Humana, United Healthcare, Aetna, and more. Because insurance plans vary, you’ll want to contact your insurer to get the full details of your coverage, including out of network benefits.
