College and University Alcoholics Anonymous Meetings
Here is a list of local colleges and the public 12-Step/AA/NA meetings that are hosted there. This is not an endorsement of these meetings by AA or any 12 step group and is being published here as a resource for college and university students to be aware of these meetings. It is so crucial for students to feel as comfortable as possible attending meetings and oftentimes meeting other recovering students is a vital step in the recovery process. If you know of other meetings for college students please contact me so I can update this list at jfrankphd@gmail.com
