GROW is a peer support and mutual aid organization for recovery from, and prevention of, serious mental illness. GROW was founded in Sydney, Australia in 1957 by Father Cornelius B. “Con” Keogh, a Roman Catholic priest, and psychiatric patients who sought help with their mental illness in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Consequently, GROW adapted many of AA’s principles and practices. As the organization matured, GROW members learned of Recovery, Inc., an organization also created to help people with serious mental illness, and integrated pieces of its will-training methods.
