People, access, and reach

Outside the U.S. and Canada, route through the A.A. office and meeting information for that country

A.A.W.S. provides an international directory, but local offices are normally the authoritative path to meetings and literature relevant to a reader’s country.

A.A.W.S. maintains a directory of international locations

International Locations

Official A.A.W.S. source: Find A.A. Near You (World)

The directory is the starting point for locating an A.A. entity in another country; it is not itself a static copy of every meeting worldwide.

The local office is normally the best resource outside the U.S. and Canada

your best A.A. resource will most likely be a local office within your country

This prevents a Pittsburgh or U.S./Canada page from presenting itself as the final authority for another country’s schedule or service structure.

Local offices connect readers to relevant meetings and literature

The final step is deliberately local: use the office or service entity for current information, then verify the meeting details there.
