NA Meetings in Amherst, NY

It’s common for Amherst residents to use the local meeting as their home base and make the drive to Buffalo to supplement the schedule. You can also check out the New York meeting directory for more options throughout the state.

What an NA Meeting Is Like

Despite any rumors to the contrary, you don’t have to say anything or commit to anything if you attend an NA meeting. This is simply a free fellowship gathring of peers who want to stop using drugs.

The meetings can be open (anyone is welcome, including family members) or closed (reserved for individuals who want to stop using drugs). You’ll also discover that meetings have different formats. Discussion meetings allow the group to cover a specific topic for the hour. Speaker meetings feature one person sharing their story. And step studies walk you through the 12 Steps of NA in detail.

In Person and Online Options

For the in person meeting, you’ll probably need a car unless you happen to live within walking distance. If transportation is an issue, online meetings let you connect with a group without any travel.
