Alcoholics Anonymous (A. A.) Meetings in Westlake Village, California
Meeting Makers Make It ... but they need to know where the meetings are!
This online listing of A. A. meetings is put together from many sources, including local and central office meeting directories, the listings of local clubs and community resources, and direct information from the groups and members involved.
In the case of Westlake Village, more is involved than usual. That is, the majority of meetings elsewhere or formerly listed as "Westlake Village" are actually located in what is now the city of Thousand Oaks, Ventura County. Since our purpose here is simply to make the meetings as easy as possible to find, we've used the physical location (and name), rather than the preferred or historical version. If you cannot find a 'Westlake Village' meeting here, please try the link to Thousand Oaks.
These lists are offered as a free service to anybody who can use them. The work is unaffiliated with any official body in the area – or with any organization at all, for that matter.
As with all we do in A. A., we rely on each other for meeting information. At present, not only are untold meetings not listed at all, but the information available on many is doubtful, sometimes listed by one source but not another, sometimes with contradictory listings. Where something is especially important to clear up, we have added a little pop-up note [Help!] to alert our visitors and ask for your help. In many cases (" ... Please advise on the status of this meeting") this may be a last attempt to make sure that a meeting is gone, before removing it from the lists, so informations is especially important.
Please let us know (s.i.meetings@gmail.com) of any additions, subtractions, corrections, comments and suggestions you may have – so that, together, we can let those who need us know where to find us.
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 have tried to fully identify the locations in which we meet.
— Where we do have to shorten names, we apologize. E.g., while many Methodists are in fact “United Methodists”,
the extra word often doesn't fit well in the lines.
— We have added links to Maps for each meeting; the links contain (as a pop-up) the Thomas Guide coordinates.
— Meetings with “men” or “women” in the group name are for men and women only, respectively.
— Meeting formats, if not in the group name, are shown separately. Where none is 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, should never be affiliated in any way with any locations
in which they are held, whether they be hospitals, schools, clubs, treatment or community centers, etc.
