Nomad AA

Nomad AA

Recovering from alcohol addiction is a lifelong journey, which is why this substance use disorder is often treated using a combination of therapies. Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is one resource to help people become and stay sober and is available nearly worldwide.

Whether you recently finished an alcohol rehab program, are seeking the right treatment for you, or are in traditional therapy and could use more support, AA may be a beneficial support as you start your journey to long-term recovery.

We are an “open” group of members who mostly have extended lengths of sobriety – we welcome newcomers and offer our support, wisdom, and advice to those wishing to journey to sobriety and remaining sober. We meet Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:30am to 1:30pm in the Parish Hall.

Please contact Chuck Anderson at (623) 518-4450 with questions.
