Central Florida AA and COVID-19 – News and Updates

Area Meeting Cancellations, Moves, and Related Changes

With the important COVID-19 recommendations from the CDC and AA’s GSO office in effect, many groups have voted to suspend their meetings or have been required to move them to another location.

Please click here to submit a COVID-related meeting change request.

As a service to the Central Florida AA community, we will do our best to maintain an updated list on this page to assist those who are seeking in-person meetings and wish to avoid attempting to attend one that has been changed.

This page will list meetings that have reported COVID-related schedule changes or online meeting options. The app and meeting guide will reflect in-person meeting suspensions with a “temporary closure” tag on the individual listings and an “online meetings” tag for those hosting online meetings. Once a meeting returns to its usual schedule, they will be removed from this page and the tags will be removed from the listings.

To view the entire schedule of online meetings being held in Central Florida, please click here or filter within the app or online meeting guide to show only those meetings marked as “online meetings.”
