C.A. History of Step One: On March 22, 1987, The Twelve Steps of Cocaine Anonymous, The Twelve Traditions of Cocaine Anonymous and The Twelve Concepts of Cocaine Anonymous were ratified at the 3rd World Services Conference. (Source: March 21-22, 1987 Third World Services Conference Minutes). *Note: The evolution of our Step One was initially referenced at the 1st World Conference (Feb. 9, 1986) where it was ratified that “WSO approved literature – whenever Cocaine is mentioned it should read “Cocaine and all other mind altering chemicals.” Then, cited in the 2nd World Conference (July 2, 1986) minutes, under “Qualifications for a Trustee,” point 5, it reads, “A minimum of 2 years of continuous abstinence from cocaine and all other mind altering substances.” And so at the 3rd WSC, on March 22, 1987, the First Step of C.A. was ratified as it is read today, “We admitted we were powerless over Cocaine and all other Mind Altering Substances.”
