"AAP Lawyers support meetings are building a 'fellowship' among persons whose professional, personal and financial lifestyles and histories are similar enough for the attending professional to identify with."
From real and anonymous attorneys for whom AAP provided safe, confidential, and privileged help:
"Although there are hundreds of Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous and other 12-step meetings on Oahu each week, only AAP was helpful to me as a lawyer, personally and professionally..."
"As we all know, Hawaii is a small community and AAP is providing comfort to attorneys who have a feeling of not belonging and not being understood at traditional AA meetings."
"In my own experience I have successfully prevented recurrence of the behavioral symptoms of my addictions (i.e. relapse) by being able to pick up the phone and call someone at AAP with a similar history who understands on many levels the obstacles to my sobriety and is always helpful in helping me overcome them."
"Thank you so much for offering lawyers a safe and confidential place to begin and continue the hard work of personal recovery from dangerous addictions and hopeless depression."
