There is a Hepatitis Mail List for those in 12 step programs (most notably Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous)... although it is not a twelve step program... it is to provide a means of sharing experience, strength and hope for those who are involved in a 12 step program of recovery and who are also victims of the disease of hepatitis. To subscribe they need to address the post to: maiser@listserv.ant.net and in the body of the message type: “subscribe 12StepHe” or, contact rivadder@ids.net and they can add you to the list manually.
