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.

About AA in Hawaii

Oahu: Honolulu and the windward and leeward coasts

Honolulu Intergroup serves the City and County of Honolulu, with meetings across Waikiki, downtown, Kakaako, Manoa, Kailua, Kaneohe, and the windward and leeward coasts. The University of Hawaii anchors a substantial young-people's meeting presence. Schofield Barracks, Pearl Harbor, and Kaneohe Marine Corps Base add military-family attendance to nearby civilian meetings. The Korean-language, Japanese-language, and Tagalog meeting presence reflects the island's demographics.

Maui, the Big Island, and Kauai

Maui Intergroup serves Maui County (including Molokai and Lanai). Lahaina, Kahului, Kihei, and Hana each have established meeting calendars. The Big Island (Hawaii County) has meeting networks anchored by Hilo and Kona, with smaller communities maintained through hybrid options. Kauai's meeting calendar runs from Lihue through Kapaa, Princeville, and Hanalei.

Getting to a meeting in Hawaii

TheBus and TheHandi-Van serve Oahu. Maui Bus, Hele-On (Big Island), and Kauai Bus serve the neighbor islands. Outside transit routes, driving is the standard option. The directory shows each meeting's exact address with one-tap navigation links.
