Greater Los Angeles NA's 24-hour line is (323) 933-5395, listed on the area helpline page, which also gives 1-800-863-2962 as a wider live line. A New High is listed Monday at 7 p.m. at Crenshaw United Methodist Church, 3740 Don Felipe Drive. Los Angeles is a pile of areas.
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 (323) 933-5395 or 1-800-863-2962 (the page writes it as 1-800-TodayNA). Spanish-language help on that same page is 1-888-622-4672. The helpline sheet is at greaterlosangelesna.org/helplines. The area home is greaterlosangelesna.org.
One meeting you can name
A New High, Monday at 7 p.m., is at Crenshaw United Methodist Church, 3740 Don Felipe Drive. We Care is listed Wednesday at 7 p.m. at 8305 South Gramercy Place. If you are on the Westside, in the Valley, or in Long Beach, you may want that area's own number from the same helpline sheet. Bay Cities, which covers a lot of the harbor, is (310) 372-9666.
East L.A., Hollywood, the Westside, and the San Fernando Valley each have a line on that sheet. Using the Greater L.A. number is fine. Letting them transfer you is finer.
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 Los Angeles A.A. guide. The rooms named above are NA.
Doctors, crisis lines, and treatment
Some nights need a doctor before they need a church basement. Call 911 if breathing is failing. Call or text 988 if the crisis is in your head. SAMHSA's helpline at 1-800-662-HELP (4357) and FindTreatment.gov can point to care. (800) 653-9376 is our referral line for treatment, and it is free to you because providers pay for the referral. It is not an NA phoneline.
If you want a treatment referral, call or text (800) 653-9376. If you want a meeting in Los Angeles tonight, use the number or the list in the first section. In an emergency, call 911 or 988 first.

Common Questions
How do I find an NA meeting in Los Angeles tonight?
Call (323) 933-5395 or 1-800-863-2962 (the page writes it as 1-800-TodayNA). Spanish-language help on that same page is 1-888-622-4672. The helpline sheet is at greaterlosangelesna.org/helplines. The area home is greaterlosangelesna.org.
Is there a specific room in Los Angeles I can ask for?
A New High, Monday at 7 p.m., is at Crenshaw United Methodist Church, 3740 Don Felipe Drive. We Care is listed Wednesday at 7 p.m. at 8305 South Gramercy Place. If you are on the Westside, in the Valley, or in Long Beach, you may want that area's own number from the same helpline sheet. Bay Cities, which covers a lot of the harbor, is (310) 372-9666.
Do I have to talk at my first NA meeting?
No. Listening is a complete way to attend. If a phone list comes around, it is optional. Leave when the meeting ends if that is all you can do.
What if I am in withdrawal or I might hurt myself?
Call 911 if you are overdosing, not breathing, or cannot be woken. Call or text 988 if you are in a mental health crisis. An NA meeting cannot manage a medical emergency. For treatment, call or text (800) 653-9376, and say you need a program.
Is the Los Angeles A.A. meeting list the same as NA?
No. A.A. and NA are different fellowships. The Los Angeles A.A. guide has the A.A. office and the A.A. meetings. For NA, use the local site and na.org's finder.
