Alcoholics Anonymous (the Big Book)

About AA in Kentucky

Louisville and Jefferson County

Louisville Area Intergroup serves Louisville and the surrounding Jefferson, Bullitt, and Oldham counties. The city's meeting calendar includes long-running groups in the Highlands, NuLu, the Original Highlands, and downtown. The Spanish-language meeting presence has grown in recent years. The South End and West End neighborhoods have their own meeting clusters.

Lexington and the Bluegrass

Lexington Area Intergroup serves Fayette County and the surrounding Bluegrass communities. The University of Kentucky anchors a substantial young-people's meeting presence. Horse-industry workers add their own rhythms to weekday meeting schedules. Georgetown, Versailles, and the smaller Bluegrass counties round out the region's calendar.

Northern Kentucky and the Cincinnati commute

Northern Kentucky Intergroup serves Boone, Kenton, and Campbell counties, with a meeting culture shaped in part by the Cincinnati commute. Covington, Newport, and Florence each have established calendars. Several meetings here coordinate with the Cincinnati fellowship across the river.

Appalachian Kentucky and Western Kentucky

Eastern Kentucky's meeting network reaches across Pike, Floyd, Harlan, Letcher, and the surrounding Appalachian counties. The region's recovery community has been heavily shaped by the opioid crisis and the broader public-health response. Western Kentucky's meeting calendar runs from Bowling Green through Owensboro to Paducah, with regional networks shaped by the agricultural and industrial economies.
