If you are new to the West Virginia Alcoholics Anonymous program, you may be wondering what the program is all about. Perhaps the most important thing to keep in mind about AA’s addiction recovery program is that it is not a do-it-yourself program. The primary goal of AA is to carry the message of hope to other recovering people. In the early days of AA, the founders discovered that unless they helped other struggling alcoholics get sober, they could not maintain their sobriety.This need to carry the message is why the early AA founders started the sponsorship program. A sponsor is a type of mentor who helps other group members work the 12-Step program of Alcoholics Anonymous. A sponsor shares their AA story of experience, strength, and hope in quitting alcohol and staying sober. When you show up at your first AA meeting, you may be surprised by the warm reception other group members extend to newcomers. Many AA groups invite beginners to adopt a temporary sponsor until a permanent sponsor can be selected.
