AA Meetings in Latin America
Alcoholics Anonymous is well established across Latin America (Mexico, the Caribbean, and South America), with large Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking fellowships alongside English-speaking groups in expat and resort communities. The meetings listed here are those published through the Meeting Guide network; national AA websites list many more local-language groups.
Meetings follow the same 12-step program used worldwide. Resort areas and expat hubs typically run English-speaking schedules, while local-language groups form the core elsewhere.
Finding English-Speaking Meetings
English-speaking meetings are easiest to find in expat and tourist centers: Mexico City, Puerto Vallarta, San Miguel de Allende, Grand Cayman, and Trinidad. Check our city pages for specific meeting times and locations.
