Abstract

ABSTRACT: This study focused on finding out the perceived effectiveness of the twelve-step program based on the perception of the drug rehabilitation directors and the success rates of their institutions per year. It also covered the different theories, programs and therapies in association with 12-step program and the involvement of the law on this particular matter on providing decrees to be adhered. There were a total of 5 drug rehabilitation directors in Cavite who participated in the study. MEDTHODOLOGY: The study used the purposive sampling in selecting the participants and utilized the descriptive method research design. The qualitative data collected were analyzed based on the interview guide questions validated by psychology experts. MAJOR FINDINGS: 1. Admission the chemical dependents are powerless over drugs/substances 2. Recognition of a higher power 3. Self-reflection 4. Acknowledgement of wrong doings 5. Continual personal inventory CONCLUSIONS: Based on the findings, the researchers concluded that the following data seems to prove that: 1. The twelve-step program is essential in rehabilitation centers; it could be mixed or utilized solely. The program merely serves as the guide for the chemical dependents to change; it does not guarantee a positive outcome all the time. 2. The success of the treatment and rehabilitation relies on the person, regardless of the support of the family and effectiveness of the twelve-step program. When the person at risk does not want to go on with the program, it is futile to go further.
