Questions about NA in Maywood
How many NA meetings are there in Maywood?
There are 46 meetings within 10 miles of Maywood, and the schedule above lists every one by day and time.
Which meetings have wheelchair access?
Wheelchair access is noted on 13 of the rows above.
What is the earliest and latest meeting near Maywood?
There is something as early as 10:00 AM and something as late as 8:30 PM.
What if I am willing to travel further from Maywood?
There are 92 more between 10 and 25 miles.
Do meetings run on Saturday and Sunday?
The weekend carries 14, and the weekdays carry 32.
How long do I need to stay at a meeting?
Sixty minutes is the normal shape of it. A basket goes round somewhere in the middle, which is a common moment for people to slip out. Nothing needs booking, so a meeting you leave early costs nobody anything.
Can I just sit and listen?
No. Most people say nothing at their first few. The chair keeps the hour moving and does not hand it to anyone who has not offered. Nothing is expected of you before, during or after.
What are the twelve steps?
The twelve steps are the program members work through, usually with a sponsor, over a long stretch of time. You will hear members talk about particular steps, and listening to that is not the same as being expected to be there. A discussion meeting from the list above is a better first visit than a step meeting.
