Secular Organizations for Sobriety
Many members of this organization also attend AA meetings, as it bears
some similarity to AA. However while they espouse abstinence, they also
do not have the spiritual component of the 12-Step programs.

This is a great example of just one guy doing something to help addicts
in his community, hopefully there should be something like it in your
community, if not, maybe you can do something?

THIS IS SO IMPORTANT,
most treatment facilities do offer free or reduced cost opportunities.
Often they call this a scholarship, it's basically a "pro bono" deal.
Even some of the most exclusive in-patients facillites do this.
If you are in Washington check out Lakeside-Milam, they do it all, level
1, 2 and 3. I know that they give their services away free because I was
there and saw it for myself. And the treatment is first rate.
