Staying Connected: Free Online AA and NA Meetings with In The Rooms
We wanted to have online meetings to reach people in any corner of the world from their fingertips of the computer.
When the world went into lockdown, many in-person Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meetings were canceled, leaving people in recovery feeling isolated. In this episode of the Hope Village Podcast, hosts Lucy Hall and Ri-Karlo Handy chat with Ron Tannebaum and Kenny Pomerance, the co-founders of In The Rooms, an online platform offering free virtual meetings.
Ron and Kenny share their personal journeys with addiction and recovery, explaining how In The Rooms was created to help people stay connected during tough times. They emphasize the importance of community and how their platform mimics the warmth of traditional meetings, providing a lifeline for many during the COVID-19 crisis. With expert-led sessions on various topics like dual diagnosis and grief, as well as resources like daily meditations, In The Rooms has become a global hub for recovery support.
Tune in to hear inspiring stories and practical advice on maintaining sobriety and building a supportive community, even when physical distancing keeps us apart.
