Every Saturday afternoon at 4pm, Harvest offers a support group for those recovering from alcohol addiction and support for those who are impacted by friends and family suffering from addiction.

If you're reading this and contemplating a visit, please know that practically nobody looks forward to going to their first AA meeting. In most cases this in fact is an occasion of extreme shame, dread and despair. The majority of individuals going to AA for the first time are doing so reluctantly, either because they have promised someone else to go or because they have been directed to attend by a judge, an employer, a therapist or an addictions treatment program. Even first timers who "go on their own" are usually in an intensely ambivalent and negative state. Nobody wishes to require the help that is provided by AA, and as a result virtually everyone attending their first meeting wishes that they were someplace else doing something else.

It is in fact an act of great courage to walk into an AA meeting for the first time. Please come and know you're welcome.

An excellent source of "official" AA information is available at the Alcoholics Anonymous World Services Web Site. Anyone curious about AA and contemplating going to their first meeting should read the brief descriptive information available there, including the following:
