Non 12 step rehab programs seems like a no-brainer. A federal judge recently ruled that the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous are a form of religion. Non 12 step rehab programs understand that although the 12 steps do work very well for some, they do not successful for everybody. Not by a long shot. To ask an alcoholic an or a drug addict to accept religion as the the only possible solution to their problem is not only ridiculous, it is against just plain common sense.
