Connecticut's AA community includes 1,206 meetings across 179 cities, held daily at churches, community centers, and online. Whether you're looking for a meeting near you, a specific format, or an online or Zoom option anywhere in Connecticut, this directory lists local AA groups that are open to newcomers and people at every stage of recovery.

Connecticut is small enough that no meeting in the directory is more than two hours from any other, but the state runs five distinct meeting regions: Fairfield County in the NYC commuter belt, the New Haven and Shoreline corridor, the Hartford-Springfield axis, the Eastern Connecticut and casino-economy area, and the Litchfield Hills in the Northwest. The directory lists meetings in all 169 towns.

What members read between meetings

A.A.'s own literature does most of the heavy lifting between meetings in Connecticut. These are the books most often spotted on a member's bookshelf, with a short note on what each one is for. Each card is tagged with its language.

Alcoholics Anonymous (the Big Book)

English

The book Bill W. and Dr. Bob wrote first, in 1939. Most members pick up a copy in their first week or two and keep it close.

Look on Amazon

Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions

English

Bill W.'s longer essays on each Step and each Tradition. The usual companion read once the Big Book starts to feel familiar.

Look on Amazon

Living Sober

English

A short, practical book about the day-to-day of staying sober. Often the one a sponsor suggests in the first month.

Look on Amazon

Daily Reflections

English

One short A.A. reading for each day of the year, with a thought to carry into it. Members often keep a copy on the kitchen counter.

Look on Amazon

As Bill Sees It

About AA in Connecticut

Fairfield County and the NYC commuter belt

Southwestern Connecticut Intergroup serves Stamford, Norwalk, Greenwich, Westport, Fairfield, Bridgeport, and the surrounding communities. The meeting culture is shaped by the daily Metro-North commute, with early-morning, lunchtime, and after-work calendars that fit professional schedules. Stamford and Norwalk have dense weekday options; Greenwich and Westport have a long-running step-study and Big Book tradition. Bridgeport's meeting list extends into Stratford and the Naugatuck Valley communities.

New Haven, the Shoreline, and Eastern Connecticut

New Haven Area Intergroup covers New Haven, Yale, the medical district, and the Shoreline towns east toward New London. Spanish-language meetings cluster in Fair Haven and parts of West Haven. The Shoreline meeting calendar includes year-round options in Branford, Madison, Old Saybrook, and Mystic. Eastern Connecticut Intergroup serves New London, Norwich, the Quiet Corner, and the casino-economy communities around Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun, where late-night meetings serve the hospitality workforce.

Hartford, Central Connecticut, and the Litchfield Hills

Greater Hartford Intergroup covers the Capitol Region, including West Hartford, East Hartford, Manchester, Bristol, New Britain, and the surrounding suburbs. The downtown Hartford meeting calendar serves the insurance-industry workforce and the state government. Northwestern Connecticut Intergroup serves the Litchfield Hills (Torrington, Winsted, Litchfield, Kent, Salisbury) with a smaller but tight-knit meeting network. The Farmington Valley, Avon, Simsbury, and Granby anchor the suburban calendar northwest of Hartford.

Getting to a meeting in Connecticut

Metro-North New Haven Line covers Fairfield County and runs to Grand Central; Shore Line East runs New Haven to New London; CTrail Hartford Line connects Springfield, MA to New Haven via Hartford.

Open Meetings

Open to the public. Family members, friends, and anyone curious about A.A. are welcome to attend. No membership or personal connection to alcohol problems is required.

A member shares their story of "experience, strength, and hope." These meetings can be grounding for newcomers who want to hear how others have navigated recovery.

Planning Your Journey to AA Meetings

When traveling to Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in Connecticut, call ahead to confirm meeting times, verify the address, and get directions. Many AA groups warmly welcome newcomers, first-timers, and out-of-town visitors.
