College Students & Young Adults

Community Meetings
Weekly meetings are held in communities throughout the country run by trained peer leaders who will assist you in learning how to spot and give examples. Affiliates in Canada and Ireland also offer meetings abroad.
Telephone Meetings
Weekly telephone meetings are available for people who cannot attend community meetings, or who wish to supplement their other meetings. Newcomer training is required to practice the method and learn telephone meeting protocol, and then you will be able to participate in an assigned meeting.
Online Meetings
Online meetings offer the benefit of attending from your own home, and allow for interaction with the leader and other participants through screen sharing of readings and spots.
Chat Meetings
Chat meetings enable you to post examples and spot on others’ examples through moderated yet informal chat format postings.
