Alcohol abuse programs
Alcohol abuse programs provide services to individuals who struggle to end their dependence on drinking. A well-known alcohol abuse program is Alcoholics Anonymous, an organization of men and women who share their experiences and hope with one another regarding their struggles with alcohol. These programs provide support for individuals to achieve the shared goal to discontinue drinking.
