Twelve Step Sponsorship: How It Works Paperback - 1996

by Hamilton B

Add to wish list

"Passing it on" is a key concept in the Twelve Step community and many of the traditions and knowledge of the Twelve Step recovery program have been passed on by word of mouth from one generation of sponsors to the next. This book effectively takes this knowledge and tradition and applies it to a working manual of sponsors, guiding them through their roles in reaching out and helping new program members.

From the publisher

Twelve Step Sponsorship is the first truly comprehensive look at sponsorship, a role recovering people benefit from both as sponsees and ultimately as sponsors.

Sponsorship is a rich and enduring part of tradition of Alcoholics Anonymous. Twelve Step Sponsorship delivers both the theory and practice--how to do it and why--in a clear, step-by-step presentation. Written by the author of Getting Started in AA, a widely acclaimed guide for the newcomer to the program of AA, Twelve Step Sponsorship is the first truly comprehensive look at sponsorship, a role recovering people benefit from both as sponsees and ultimately as sponsors. Twelve Step Sponsorship includes informative sections that deal with: finding a sponsor and being a sponsor.

Twelve Step Sponsorship offers a welcome reinforcement to the tradition of "passing it on" from one generation of sponsors to the next.
