According to recent studies, one in ten Americans meets the diagnostic criteria for alcoholism. This translates into thirty-three million alcoholics in the United States. The annual cost of the problem of alcoholism to the people of our country is estimated to be two hundred and forty-nine billion dollars per year. Recent studies also show that—over time—75 percent of Alcoholics Anonymous members are able to remain sober.
