Adult Children of Alcoholics®& Dysfunctional Families

We are glad you are here. Recovery is possible.

Welcome to Adult Children of Alcoholics®& Dysfunctional Families

Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA)/Dysfunctional Families is a Twelve Step, Twelve Tradition program of people who grew up in dysfunctional homes.

We meet to share our experience of growing up in an environment where abuse, neglect and trauma infected us. This affects us today and influences how we deal with all aspects of our lives.

ACA provides a safe, nonjudgmental environment that allows us to grieve our childhoods and conduct an honest inventory of ourselves and our family—so we may (i) identify and heal core trauma, (ii) experience freedom from shame and abandonment, and (iii) become our own loving parents.

Registration for the 2025 ABC is open

Delegates are invited to register their participation at the 2025 ABC which will occur on the 17th-18th May.
Observers can also register.

More information is available on the conference page
