12 Step Recovery
12 Step Recovery, Alcoholics Anonymous, is a twelve-step program that offers a process of recovery from alcoholism. USC provides a home to twelve-step groups in the University Religious Center. There are several AA and other twelve-step program meetings held each week, and they provide a solution to anyone who is curious, baffled, desperate, or hopeless regarding their drinking or substance abuse. The meetings are open to the public but provide an anonymous environment in which people can turn their lives around.

Al-Anon 12 & 12 Serenity Meetings
Al-Anon is not allied with any sect, denomination, political entity, organization or institution. Anonymity is a foundational principle - whom you see and what you hear stays within the confines of the meeting. Al-Anon has but one purpose: to help families of alcoholics. We do this by practicing the Twelve Steps, by welcoming and giving comfort to families of alcoholics, and by giving understanding and encouragement to the alcoholic.
This group meets Tuesdays from 12:00 PM to 1:00PM. For more information, contact Jean at 323.509.8253 or Elizabeth at 626.627.6492.
