Alcoholics Anonymous (A. A.) Meetings in South and West San Francisco Note
Bayview, Diamond Heights, Excelsior, Ingleside, Laguna Honda, Lone Mountain/USF,
Ocean View, Park Merced, Parkside, Presidio Heights,
SF State and Teresita/Miraloma Park
This page lists the 40 A. A. meetings that we know of in the 12 San Francisco neighborhoods listed above, in the western and southern areas of the city. These are the neighborhoods with less (roughly) than two meetings per day. They are listed separately here, to make them somewhat easier to find in the page, than when combined with the 4 areas hosting a greater number of meetings. For those who would like to see the complete list, we of course have that as well.
As with all we do in A. A., we rely on each other for meeting information. Where something seems especially important to clear up, we have added a little pop-up note (Help!) alerting our visitors and asking for your assistance.
Please let us know – s.i.meetings@gmail.com – of any corrections, additions, subtractions and suggestions you may have – so that, together, we can let those who need us know where to find us.
Meeting Makers Make It ... but they need to know where the meetings are!
This online listing of A. A. meetings in San Francisco County is put together from many sources, including local and central office meeting directories, the listings of local clubs, and direct information from the groups and members involved.
It is offered as a free service to those who can use it. It is unaffiliated with any official bodies – or with any organization at all, for that matter.
Notes
— Unless specified as “Closed”, all meetings are open to anyone with an interest in recovery from alcoholism.
— “Closed” meetings are only for those who themselves have “a desire to stop drinking.”
— You may generally assume that there is no smoking in the meetings.
— The © symbol next to an address indicates that it is wheelchair-accessible.
— To make finding the meetings easier, and out of respect for our hosts, we try to fully identify the locations in which we meet.
— Where we do have to shorten names, we apologize. E.g., while all Methodists are in fact “United”,
the extra word often doesn't fit well in the lines.
— We have included Maps for each meeting, with pop-up Thomas Guide coordinates, where available.
— The meeting format, if not clear from the group name, is shown separately. If not specified, assume open discussion/participation.
— If only the format is known, the space for a group name is left blank.
— If there really is no A. A. group, however, it is not really an A. A. meeting at all. Please advise!
— Genuine A. A. meetings, and the groups that hold them, are not and never should be affiliated in any way with any locations
in which they are held, whether they be hospitals, schools, clubs, treatment or community centers, etc.
