AA Northern New Jersey Intergroup
About This Group
The Northern New Jersey Intergroup of Alcoholics Anonymous coordinates AA meetings and services across Essex, Morris, Passaic, Sussex, and surrounding counties in northern New Jersey. AA provides a fellowship of people who share their experience, strength, and hope to recover from alcohol use disorder. With daily meetings throughout the region, AA offers accessible peer support for anyone seeking sobriety in a welcoming, non-judgmental environment.
What to Expect
AA meetings typically last one hour and follow various formats including open discussion, speaker meetings, Big Book study, step meetings, and beginners’ meetings. New attendees are never required to speak — listening is perfectly fine. Open meetings welcome anyone interested in learning about AA, while closed meetings are for those with a desire to stop drinking. Most meetings offer coffee and a chance to connect with members before and after.
