Our online directory of aa meetings Florida is available for those in addiction recovery. If you are new to the 12 Step Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) program, you may have trouble understanding AA terminology (commonly referred to as AA lingo). Many AA phrases started in the early 1930s when founders Bob Smith (Dr. Bob) and Bill Wilson (Bill W.) began the program. Yet, other catchphrases commonly used in the AA community began later. Some AA lingo was created to secure the anonymity of AA group participants. For example, the term “Friends of Bill W.” is employed as a secret code of sorts in public places (such as on a cruise ship) to announce AA meetings without giving away the anonymity of the recovering people on the boat. Other AA catchphrases were created to assist AA group members to remember essential concepts of the program. One example is “it works when you work it,” advising AA members that AA is an action program; working the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous is the foundation for getting sober. Another critical action step is signing up for volunteer work and helping others (particularly beginners) get sober.
