Pilots' Battle Against Forced AA Attendance and Civil Rights Violations

Living happy lives, sober or with moderation. Americans need to step up and be more empowered!
Imagine being a professional pilot, dedicated to your career, only to find yourself mandated to attend AA meetings. This episode of 'Safe Recovery' hosted by Monica Richardson dives into the unsettling world of compulsory AA attendance for pilots. You'll hear from a pilot who’s not just complying but actively fighting back against what he sees as a violation of civil rights.
Across America, professionals like pilots, nurses, and doctors are being coerced into attending these meetings, often against their will and personal beliefs. The conversation sheds light on the aftercare contracts that pilots must sign, which include mandatory AA and NA meetings. It raises critical questions about the qualifications of aftercare counselors and the overall impact on mental health and careers.
The episode also examines the FAA's regulations and the HIMS Program, which controls pilots' return to work, emphasizing the dangers of false positive alcohol test results. If you're curious about the intersection of professional obligations, civil rights, and addiction recovery, this episode is a must-listen. It offers a fresh perspective on the ongoing struggle for personal autonomy in recovery.
