Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is one of the top sobriety programs in the United States. It’s been around since 1935 to help those suffering from AUD.
According to American Addiction Centers:9
- They have 115,000 groups worldwide.
- Forty percent of people attending their meetings in a year stop going.
- Out of the 6,000 participants who recovered by 2014, 27% said they stayed sober in less than one year, 24% in 1 to 5 years, 13% in 5 to 10 years, 14% in 10 to 20 years, and 22% over 20 years.
- One year and three years later, 50% who joined AA on their own stopped drinking, but only a quarter in formal treatment stayed sober.
- After 8 years of tracking, 46% of those with professional help refrained from alcohol and drugs, while 49% of AA members remained sober.
- People with alcohol problems who did both treatment and AA were more likely to not drink for 1 to 3 years. But after 8 years, there was not much difference between them and people who only did AA.
- Twenty to 25% of people who didn’t attend AA meetings stayed sober after a year. But, almost twice as many stopped abusing substances after attending AA meetings or a similar program.
