Abstract
Alcohol abuse accounts for 88,000 deaths and $249 billion annually in the United States. At this point there is not a great evidence based model for the best form of group support. While AA and the twelve step model is the most frequently used group format, it has many limitation especially in small Vermont towns. This proposes an alternative model designed to work well in smaller communities.
