Adult Children of Alcoholics: The ACA Bill of Rights (And Why I Teach It) ACoA

The ACA Bill of Rights is a declaration of self care. This literature, found in the Adult Children of Alcoholics fellowship (ACA or ACoA), also transcends to AA, NA, Al-Anon, and other fellowships. All can benefit from this simple reminder.

Note: the literature used here is not WSO approved reading. With each item starting with "you", I feel this speaks to the newcomer and gives them a sense of hope. "The Solution is to become your own loving parent." Because of this, I will continue to share this early version of the Bill of Rights. I am a therapist and Recovery Speaker, and this version seems relatable to those I work with. The current, WSO approved edition can be found here: https://adultchildren.org/wp-content/...
