Can I go to an AA meeting online?

Practical Info

Yes. Many AA meetings are held online or in a hybrid format, so you can attend from home. Online and hybrid meetings are usually marked in the meeting finder with a link or instructions to join.

Many AA meetings now meet online or in a hybrid format, meaning some people attend in person while others attend online. This can make it easier to attend your first meeting, especially if you are nervous, do not have transportation, or need a meeting outside normal hours. Online meetings are real AA meetings. The format may be similar to in-person meetings, with readings, sharing, and the same focus on recovery from alcoholism. You can search for online or hybrid meetings at /meetings/.
