S.O.S.,
also known as "Save Ourselves, or Saving Ourselves" was founded by Jim
Christopher in 1986 in North Hollywood, California. It is a friendly alternative
to such organizations as Alcoholics Anonymous, which many people feel
have a religious/spiritual basis to its recovery program. S.O.S. takes
a strictly secular approach, emphasizing that each individual must draw
upon his or her own resources to deal with the problems of addiction:
hence the name "Save Our Selves."
For further information, you may call or email Larry H. (918-809-1152; addictionhelp@cox.net).
A flyer announcing the new S.O.S. group and a map telling how to find
the meeting place is available.
