S.L.A.A. 12 Step Weekend Retreats – 2010

In Chester, Vermont (3 hours from Albany)

Retreat Center
2010 Dates: March 26-28, July 23-25, October 1-3, December 17-19

Step study is a key tool to recovery in the S.L.A.A. program.

At the retreat weekends we do an intensive study of the 12 Steps — together.

If you have worked on the Steps in this type of format before, you already know its value. If you have not done any study of the Steps, intensive or otherwise, this is a great way to do it, especially the first time. Regardless of where we are in the Step study process, we are able to learn from sharing our experience, strength and hope with each other.
