Definition of A.A. -> B.B. -> C.C.®
| A.A. | Absolute Acceptance : A.A. is also the recognised abbreviation for Alcoholics Anonymous, from where all 12 step programs originated. In A.A. acceptance of being an alcoholic is the essential first step. |
| B.B. | Big Book : The first 12 step program was published in the Big Book (B.B.) of Alcoholics Anonymous. This book provides the most valuable reference for development of all 12 step programs. |
| C.C. | Compassion for your Community: Finding the strength of spirit to put other people before ourselves is the essence of 12 step work. This is a new way of living for people suffering with an obsession with self. |
