Welcome to Group 12
in San Antonio
Club 12 has been a home for sobriety in San Antonio since 1949. We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing a safe and welcoming space where people affected by the disease of alcoholism can find hope, healing, and support.
If you are struggling with alcohol and have found your way to this page, we welcome you. If drinking is no longer working for you and you would like to stop, keep reading.
The first step toward recovery is recognizing and admitting that alcohol has become a problem. It can be difficult to acknowledge that you are powerless over alcohol and that your life has become unmanageable. If this sounds familiar, know that you are not alone.
In 1935, two men, Bill W. and Dr. Bob, realized that alcohol had taken control of their lives. They understood that if they continued drinking, it would ultimately destroy them. They wanted to stop, but they could not do it alone.
Their families, friends, and doctors could not do it for them. No personal loss or tragedy was great enough, and no threat, treatment, or cure was powerful enough to keep them from taking that first drink. Time and again, they made sincere promises to stop, only to find themselves drinking again. They had been labeled hopeless alcoholics.
When these two men met and shared their experiences, they discovered that they understood one another in a way others could not. Through that shared understanding, they found a way to stay sober one day at a time. From that simple beginning, Alcoholics Anonymous was born.
More than 85 years later, people continue to gather every day to share their experience, strength, and hope. That is what we do here at Club 12. Each week, we host more than 50 meetings where individuals can find support, encouragement, and fellowship on their recovery journey.
On Sundays at 2:30 p.m., we offer a special newcomer meeting designed for those who are just beginning their path to sobriety. If you are wondering about costs, there are no dues or fees for membership in Alcoholics Anonymous. We are self-supporting through our own contributions.
We invite you to join us and discover a new way of life—a sober life. Through this website, you can find meeting schedules, club hours, upcoming events, and other helpful information. Please take a look around, and if you have any questions, feel free to call us at 210-344-8981.
We hope to see you soon and share how the program of Alcoholics Anonymous has helped countless people find lasting recovery and a better way of life.
