“My years as a medical practitioner, as well as my own first-hand experience, have taught me how important self-help groups are assisting their members in dealing with problems, stress, hardship and pain…Today, the benefits of mutual aid are experienced by millions of people who turn to others with a similar problem to attempt to deal with their isolation, powerlessness, alienation, and the awful feeling that nobody understands.” --C. Everett Koop, M.D. (1992)
