Announcements Revision 10/2026

Please find below details about our next business meeting, convention information, and more about A.A. and our group.

1. First164YP offers two WhatsApp groups to help us stay connected and support one another:

Recovery & Fellowship: A welcoming space to share experiences, find support and resources, and connect with others on the journey of recovery from alcoholism, guided by the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Daily Gratitude: A space to share 2–3 things we are grateful for each day, whether big or small. An opportunity to pause, reflect, and appreciate the positive things in our lives.

Everyone is welcome to join either or both groups. Participation is entirely voluntary.

If you would like to join, please read our WhatsApp Group Policy, then send your telephone number (including country code) to our group secretary at first164yp.secretary@gmail.com
