Welcome
If you want to drink, that's your business.
If you want to quit drinking, that's our business.
Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy, neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

There is always a meeting — every day of the week. We don't break for holidays or Super Bowls, so if you are looking for a safe place to get support, you never have to go through it alone.
Calendar
Having fun in recovery starts here.
Picnics, dances, anniversaries, workshops, days of sharing and district meetings. Recovery is not only about the meetings you have to go to — it's about the people you get to know. There's always something going on.

Common questions
How do I know if I have a drinking problem?
Only you can decide that. Many members say they knew when drinking stopped being fun and started being something they could not reliably control. If you want to stop drinking and find you cannot, A.A. may help. There is no test to pass and nobody will ask you to prove anything.
What happens at an A.A. meeting?
People sit down together and talk about staying sober. Someone usually reads from our literature, then members share their own experience. You are welcome to say nothing at all — listening is enough. Meetings last about an hour.
Does it cost anything?
No. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership. A basket is passed for voluntary contributions to cover rent and coffee, but nobody is expected or required to give anything.
Will anyone know I was there?
Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of A.A. Who you see and what is said at a meeting stays there. Most members use first names only.
What is the difference between an open and a closed meeting?
Anyone may attend an open meeting, including family, friends, students and professionals who want to learn about A.A. Closed meetings are for people who have a desire to stop drinking.
Need help right now?
You don't have to have it figured out before you call. Someone who has been where you are will pick up.
