The Telephone and the Internet

Tools of Recovery

We maintain frequent contact with other DA members by using the telephone, email, and other forms of communication. We make a point of talking to other DA members before and after taking difficult steps in our recovery.

Those of us working the HOW Concept make at least one person to person phone contact every day with another DA member. It provides an immediate outlet for those hard-to-handle highs and lows we all experience.

The telephone is also a daily link to our sponsors, and as part of the surrender process, is a tool by which we learn to ask for help, reach out and extend that same help to others.
