First time?

What to expect.

If you’ve never been to a meeting, that’s OK. Most of our regulars hadn’t either, the first time.

  • You don’t have to share. Listening is enough.
  • No fee. A basket goes around — entirely optional.
  • Come as you are. No dress code, no signup. Just show up.
  • Confidentiality. What’s said in the room stays in the room.
