Come as you are. Sit near the door if you want an exit.
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.
Who to call
Call (412) 391-5247 or open tristate-na.org. The mailing address on the site is P.O. Box 423, Homestead, PA. The box is not the meeting.
Where to sit
Sunday Action, 9 a.m., is at Shepherd's Heart, 13 Pride Street. Soul to Soul is listed Sunday at 1 p.m. at East Liberty Presbyterian Church, 116 South Highland Avenue. Friendship Group is listed Sunday at 3:30 p.m. at Friendship Community Church, 181 Robinson Street. Pride Street is the morning room. Highland Avenue is the afternoon room in East Liberty.
North Pittsburgh and the inner-city area exist as separate service bodies in the same region. The helpline can tell you which list your neighborhood is on.
What the hour is like
The first meeting is usually an hour of people talking about what it was like and what they are doing now. You can sit near the back. You do not sign in. If someone offers a phone list, it is optional. The only requirement NA talks about is a desire to stop using.
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 Pittsburgh A.A. guide. The rooms named above are NA.
When a meeting is not enough
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 Pittsburgh tonight, use the number or the list in the first section. In an emergency, call 911 or 988 first.
