Alcoholics Anonymous (A. A.) Meetings in Eastern Riverside County, California
– Including Blythe, Desert Center and Salton City (formerly with Bouse, Parker and Quartzsite, Arizona*) –
Thus far we have found only 18 meetings in this huge area of eastern Riverside County – they are few and far between. They have accordingly been combined in a single page here, along with nearby meetings in Imperial County, California and La Paz County, Arizona, to keep each other company. That should work for meetings as well as it does for us.
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 this is especially important to clear up, we have added a little pop-up (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 corrections, additions, subtractions and suggestions you may have – so that, together, we can let those who need them know where the meetings are.
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.
It is offered as a free service to anybody who can use it, and 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.
