The three components of A Woman's Way through the Twelve Steps program - facilitator guide, workbook, and book, along with the supplemental DVD - are designed for use with women and gender-diverse people in residential and outpatient treatment programs, as well as mental health and criminal justice settings. The components can stand alone, but to achieve the best outcomes, it is recommended that components be used together as a comprehensive, integrated treatment program for women.

 

A Woman's Way through the Twelve Steps Book

[Covington, S.  (2024 English and Spanish).  Center City, MN: Hazelden Publishing]
 

The life stories included in this new 30th anniversary edition are rich in diversity - reflecting differences in age, race, and ethnicity, class, gender, religion, geographic location, occupation, choice of partner, and role as mother. In this new edition, Stephanie Covington has added the voices of transgender women and nonbinary people whose recovery was significantly supported by connecting with women's groups. This compilation of a diverse group of real women’s voices and wisdom illuminates how women understand the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and offers inspiring stories of how they have traveled through the Steps and discovered what works for them. The book can be used alone or as a companion to The Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous.

By drawing attention to how recovery raises special issues for those who identify as women - from questions about sexuality and relationships to essential topics such as powerlessness, spirituality, and trauma - A Woman’s Way empowers women to take ownership of their recovery and to grow and flourish in sobriety.
