Greater Charlotte NA prints a 24/7 hotline at (855) 613-2762 on charlotte-na.org, next to the meeting list. Open Arms is listed Sunday at 11 a.m. at the 12 Step Club, 709 East Boulevard. You can walk in without a plan. Tell them you are new if you want to. Or just sit.
You are allowed to be new. Most people in the room were new once.
If the night turns medical, call 911 when someone is overdosing, seizing, not breathing, or cannot be woken. If you might hurt yourself, call or text 988. Come back to a meeting when you are safe.
The phone, then the room
Call (855) 613-2762 or open charlotte-na.org. The site calls that number a 24/7 hotline. Use it if you are staring at the clock and cannot tell which meeting is still ahead of you.
One meeting you can name
Open Arms, Sunday at 11 a.m., is at the 12 Step Club, 709 East Boulevard. R.A.W. (Ready, Able and Willing) is listed Sunday at 9 a.m. at McCreesh Place, 2120 North Davidson Street. End of The Road is listed Sunday at 4 p.m. at Third Presbyterian Church, 4019 Central Avenue. East Boulevard is a simple bus ride if that is the part of town you know.
Rock Hill and other Carolina towns are different areas. If the hotline sends you to another list, take it. The 855 number is for this area's meetings.
You can just listen
You will not be interviewed. You will not be charged. A chairperson will open the meeting, someone may read a short piece of NA literature, and people share. If your mind is loud, listening is enough for one night.
Our meeting finder searches public NA listings by day and ZIP. It is one more place to look. The local list is the one to trust when they disagree, and you should still confirm with the group.
If what you need to say is about drinking, open the Charlotte A.A. guide. The rooms named above are NA.
Doctors, crisis lines, and treatment
If the danger is medical, do not wait on a meeting. Call 911 for an overdose or trouble breathing. Call or text 988 if you might hurt yourself. NA can sit with you after you are safe. It cannot manage withdrawal. For a treatment referral, call or text (800) 653-9376. Say you want a program, so they do not send you back to the meeting list.
If you want a treatment referral, call or text (800) 653-9376. If you want a meeting in Charlotte tonight, use the number or the list in the first section. In an emergency, call 911 or 988 first.
