Connections - A Guide to Using Support in ACA Recovery

Introducing the Connections Book: A Deeper Look at Support in Recovery What does real support look like in ACA? How do we navigate the difference between a fellow traveler and a sponsor? And how do we build relationships that are grounded in trust, clarity, and healthy boundaries? The Connections book was created in response to a delegate motion asking for clarity around these questions – starting with the difference between a fellow traveler and a sponsor, a distinction not clearly defined in the Big Red Book. But what began as a simple clarification evolved into something much more meaningful. Inside Connections, you'll find a thoughtful, wide-ranging exploration of support in ACA: The roles of both the seeker and the supporter Common challenges and misunderstandings in support relationships Practical insights for building stronger connections in recovery Whether you're new to ACA or have been in the program for years, Connections offers valuable guidance for anyone seeking – or offering – support on the journey to healing.
