AFIRM has links to Methadone Anonymous, Methadone Patient Support and Community Education Project. AFIRM spun off from Methadone Anonymous and is a self help group for, and led by, current and former methadone maintenance treatment patients. "Have you ever attended a 12-Step meeting and were not allowed to 'share' because you are a methadone patient? Have you ever gone to one of these meetings and felt like you could not be honest about being a methadone patient because there were things you needed to talk about?" AFIRM is useful for people who want to follow a 12-Step program while on methadone maintenance.
