Alcoholics Anonymous Answering Service
Alcoholics Anonymous is a worldwide fellowship of men and women who help each other to stay sober. They offer the same help to anyone who has a drinking problem and wants to do something about it. Since they are all alcoholics themselves, they have a special understanding of each other. They know what the illness feels like – and they have learned how to recover from it in AA.
Additional Information
There are many 12-Step meetings in New Canaan and the surrounding towns. Feel free to call 203-855-0075 to get the AA answering service, or go here to find a meeting.
AA meetings vary in format and size. There are discussion meetings, speaker meetings, meetings which center around reading AA literature, and some meetings are combinations of these formats.
At any AA meeting, alcoholics share from their own experience about what their lives were like when they were drinking, what actions they have taken to recover from active alcoholism, and what their lives are like today.
AA does not keep any membership records. You do not have to reveal anything about yourself when you attend a meeting. Attending an AA meeting does not obligate you to anything; you are welcome to make your own decision about whether to come back.
