Nobody is going to make you tell your story tonight.
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 (916) 732-2299 for the American River number published on the California helpline list. Open sacramentona.org and the Sacramento Fellowship page. If the two lists disagree, believe the one that names your neighborhood and confirm by phone.
Where to sit
North Sac Group, Sunday at 6 p.m., is at the Alano Club, 940 Eleanor Avenue. Clunie Group, Monday at noon, is at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, 2620 Capitol Avenue. Hump Day Hope is listed Tuesday at noon at St. Luke's Church, 7595 Center Parkway. Capitol Avenue is a downtown noon meeting. Eleanor Avenue is an evening meeting.
Gold Country and other valley areas have their own lists. Davis and Woodland may not be on the Sacramento page you opened first. Ask.
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 Sacramento A.A. guide. The rooms named above are NA.
When a meeting is not enough
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 Sacramento 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 Sacramento tonight?
Call (916) 732-2299 for the American River number published on the California helpline list. Open sacramentona.org and the Sacramento Fellowship page. If the two lists disagree, believe the one that names your neighborhood and confirm by phone.
Is there a specific room in Sacramento I can ask for?
North Sac Group, Sunday at 6 p.m., is at the Alano Club, 940 Eleanor Avenue. Clunie Group, Monday at noon, is at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, 2620 Capitol Avenue. Hump Day Hope is listed Tuesday at noon at St. Luke's Church, 7595 Center Parkway. Capitol Avenue is a downtown noon meeting. Eleanor Avenue is an evening meeting.
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 Sacramento A.A. meeting list the same as NA?
No. A.A. and NA are different fellowships. The Sacramento A.A. guide has the A.A. office and the A.A. meetings. For NA, use the local site and na.org's finder.
