How to Find an A.A. Meeting in Hamilton Through aahamilton.org

Go to aahamilton.org and use the Find A Meeting link, which is the site's dedicated meeting search. If you prefer to speak with someone or need help navigating options, the Hamilton Central Office also lists a 24-hour telephone answering service at 905-522-8392. The site is the online presence of AA Central Office at 627 Main Street East, Suite 205, Hamilton, Ontario L8M 1J5.

Start with the meeting finder

The homepage navigation includes Find A Meeting alongside Meetings, Events, and Resources. That is the intended entry point for locating a meeting rather than browsing the site's general pages.

The site also references a Bridging The Gap Temporary Contact Program, which connects people leaving treatment or other institutions with an A.A. contact before their first meeting. If your situation involves a transition from a facility, that program is worth checking alongside the meeting list.

What you can expect to find

Based on the site's structure, meeting information sits under the Meetings section, with related Events and Event Calendar pages for special gatherings such as Hamilton's Autumn Leaf Round Up. The site does not publish a fixed, static schedule on the homepage, so the meeting finder is the page to rely on for current listings.

Because meeting times and locations can change, treat any single listing as a snapshot. The site's own emphasis on a 24-hour phone line suggests that calling is a normal and expected way to confirm details.

If you are not sure where to begin

• Use the phone line first if you want a human answer. 905-522-8392 is described as a 24-hour telephone answering service.
• Check the For Professionals page if you work with problem drinkers or alcoholics and need information about A.A. for referral purposes.
• Look at For Family, Friends & Employers if you are searching on someone else's behalf.
• Check Events if you are looking for a specific round-up or area event rather than a regular meeting.

A note on contributions and access

The site's Digital Contributions section states that, in keeping with A.A.'s Seventh Tradition, contributions are accepted only from members of Alcoholics Anonymous. This does not affect your ability to find a meeting — the meeting search and telephone service are separate from the contribution pages.

Quick reference

If the meeting finder does not return what you need, call the 24-hour line — it exists precisely for questions like this.
