When you are ready, here are several ways AA can help. 

 1. If you want to speak to someone from your area, please provide your first name, gender, phone number and zip code. Then an AA member will contact you via phone.                                              

2. If you are not comfortable providing that information, please call (312) 346-1475. We believe this works best when one member is talking to another. Someone is on the other end, hoping to help.  

3. If you would rather just attend a meeting (either In Person or Online), we can find a suitable one (Open or Closed) for you to attend. When the question is asked if it is anyone’s first meeting ever in life, please raise your hand and state your first name. The AA members will be welcoming and grateful you are in attendance.
