What Is a Recovery Dictionary?

A recovery dictionary is a reference guide that explains the terminology, phrases, and concepts used in Twelve Step literature such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous. These dictionaries help members better understand the language found in recovery books like the Big Book, Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, and the NA Basic Text.

Recovery dictionaries are often used during meetings, sponsorship discussions, step work, and personal study. They allow members to quickly look up unfamiliar recovery terms and gain deeper understanding of the principles discussed in AA and NA literature.
