Twelve-Step Meetings & Programs in the Houston, TX Area
Groups & Meetings at The Council on Recovery
The Council on Recovery believes that Twelve-Step programs, patterned after Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), are empirically supported and effective. They can play a vital role in the recovery process. We strongly recommend attendance of Twelve-Step meetings to our clients. However, the meetings and groups themselves are entirely autonomous and are not affiliated with The Council beyond our provision of space for them to hold their meetings.
The Twelve-Step groups listed on this page hold their meetings at The Council. For a complete directory of Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in the greater Houston area, click here. For a complete directory of Al-Anon meetings in the greater Houston area, click here.
