Online Alcoholics Anonymous Meetings Now Offer a Lifeline to More and More Women and Men Seeking Recovery, Anytime, Anywhere

Press Release – September 2025

AA Australia. September 2025

Introduction

In a world where connection and support are more vital than ever, Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) has continued to evolve by now offering online meetings that are accessible from anywhere with an internet connection.

Online AA meetings provide the same principles of fellowship, anonymity, and support as traditional in-person meetings—offering a safe and welcoming environment for women and men struggling with alcohol use to share their experiences and find community and support in recovery.

“Alcoholism doesn’t stop because the world changes—and neither does recovery,” said a spokesperson from the AA General Service Office. “Online meetings now ensure that anyone, anywhere, at any time, can access support.”

Accessible Support for All

Whether you’re travelling, housebound, living in a regional or rural area, or simply prefer the privacy and convenience of an online format, these digital gatherings are available 24/7 and include a wide range of formats, including speaker meetings, discussion groups, and literature studies.

Key Benefits of Online AA Meetings

  • 24/7 availability across time zones
