Our Meetings

Ben’s Friends meetings are open to anyone interested in sobriety and support, whether they are currently sober or just beginning their journey. Our one-hour meetings are currently taking place on Zoom or in person depending on COVID-19 restrictions in each city. See list below for details.

The goal during our meetings, both over Zoom and in person, is to provide a safe space for members to connect and support one another with compassion and acceptance. We value and respect members’ anonymity and welcome listening or participation, whatever feels right to you. 

To join our online meetings, you may be asked to sign into Zoom. You can sign up for a free Zoom account here.
