The GROW Program
The GROW Program began its development very early in GROW’s history and is still being developed and improved today.
The collective wisdom of those early meetings was written down and developed into a Twelve Step Program of personal growth along with a whole collection of other writings that make up the written Program today. The GROW Program is the means to an end – and that end or aim is recovery or personal growth to maturity. It is directed at helping one another develop what GROW defines as the Five Foundations of Maturity: 
- Understanding
- Acceptance
- Confidence
- Control
- Love
The 12 Step Program is based on common rules for healthy living and proven, experience based and research validated, steps for recovery and personal growth. It encourages, and shows the way for members to achieve their three vital needs:
- To be Someone (unique identity and personal value)
- To be at Home (security and loving harmony)
- To be going Somewhere (purpose and progress)
