Connecticut has 1,225 AA meetings listed across 182 cities, held every day of the week at churches, community centers, and online. Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in Connecticut are free and confidential, and open to anyone with a desire to stop drinking, with no membership, referral, or fee required.
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.
The largest AA intergroup listed in Connecticut is Western Mass Intergroup, with 2 meetings. Call them at (413) 532-2111 or visit westernmassaa.net for meeting updates and local AA service information. 1 other AA service office serves Connecticut, listed further down this page.

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.
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.

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

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
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.
