New to CoDA?
Being open to the possibility of being co-dependent is the first step toward finding the courage and willingness to attend a meeting and beginning to work the program. CoDA is a spiritually based program based on the 12 Steps adopted from Alcoholics Anonymous. More
What is Co-Dependency?
Symptoms of co-dependency appear in our lives in various ways and are often not singular or well defined. Being co-dependent is recognized by mental health providers as a significant contributor to various forms of health and psychological distress. More
Baby Steps
"Working the program" is a phrase you may hear as you begin to attend meetings. Perhaps the best way to begin your recovery is to start by taking "baby steps," no matter how small.
Meetings
CoDA is a 'grassroots' organization. Each person participates, at their own pace, in their own personal recovery from co-dependency. Many have shared that meetings are a sacred place to share experience, strength, and hope in a safe environment free from criticism, advice, or cross talk. Find a meeting
Sponsorship
Sponsors are people within the CoDA program who help guide us through the Twelve Step recovery process. These people are recovering codependents whose personal recovery is their first priority. They’ve usually walked the road of recovery longer than we have. More
Foundational Documents
