How to Find the Right Meeting for You

Recovery looks different for everyone. Here's what you need to know about the most common meeting types and how to choose one that fits.

01

Finding the Right Fit

There is no single meeting type that works for everyone. The best way to find your fit is to attend several different groups before settling into a regular one. Most communities have dozens of meetings each week — different formats, different sizes, different cultures.

If the first meeting you attend doesn't feel right, try another. Variation in meeting format (open, closed, speaker, step study) can make a significant difference in how comfortable and supported you feel.

Online meetings offer a useful starting point: they're accessible at any hour, require no travel, and let you experience several programs before committing to in-person attendance. AA Online Intergroup lists meetings running around the clock.

02

Why Tracking Attendance Matters

Consistency is one of the most reliable predictors of long-term recovery. Research and lived experience both point to the same conclusion: regular meeting attendance, especially in the early months, significantly improves outcomes.

Tracking your attendance creates a visible record of your commitment. Seeing a streak of 30, 60, or 90 consecutive days is a concrete reminder of what you've built — especially on difficult days when motivation is low.

Lumafy AI's Recovery Mode is built for this. Log meetings, track streaks, and see your attendance history in a private, secure dashboard. Start tracking your meeting attendance today — it's free.

Common Questions

How do I find AA meetings near me?
Use the meeting finder above. Enter your city or zip code, select "AA" as the meeting type, and click "Find Meetings." You'll be directed to the official AA meeting locator at aa.org with your location pre-filled. AA meetings are held in virtually every city, town, and many rural communities worldwide. If you can't find a meeting near you, online meetings are available around the clock.
Are there online AA meetings available 24/7?
Yes. The AA Online Intergroup lists online AA meetings running around the clock, seven days a week. Select "Online" from the meeting type selector above to be directed there. Online meetings are accessible from anywhere with an internet connection and require no in-person attendance — useful when travel is difficult or when you need a meeting at an unusual hour.
What is the difference between AA and NA meetings?
Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) focuses specifically on recovery from alcohol use disorder, using a 12-step program. Narcotics Anonymous (NA) uses the same 12-step framework but is designed for people recovering from any drug addiction, including prescription medications and illicit substances. Both programs welcome anyone who has a desire to stop — the primary difference is the substance focus, though many people attend both. Al-Anon is for family members and friends of people with alcohol problems. SMART Recovery is a non-12-step, science-based alternative that works for any addictive behavior and requires no sponsor relationship.
