Self Help
Participants and families are oriented to 12-step-based self-help programs and are encouraged to attend. Self-help groups can complement and extend the effects of Integrated Dual Disorders treatment. The most prominent self-help groups are those affiliated with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA) Double Trouble, and Al-anon, all of which are based on the 12-step model and Smart Recovery.
