STEP 12 & TRADITION 12

SAFETY AND ANONYMITY

In online meetings

Step Twelve states that 'Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.'

​

Whilst the twelfth tradition says that 'Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions, ever reminding us to place principles above personalities.'

​

How do we reconcile these two competing aim, that is often at loggerheads in this online world?
