AA meetings in Fort Worth, TX: how to find an Alcoholics Anonymous or NA meeting today

To find an AA meeting in Fort Worth today, open Find a Meeting at fortworthaa.org or call the Fort Worth Central Office, whose phones are answered 24/7: 817-332-3533 or 800-396-1602. It's the Alcoholics Anonymous office for Tarrant County, including Arlington, and 16 nearby counties, and it lists online meetings and a Spanish-language intergroup. For drug use, the Fort Worth Area of Narcotics Anonymous posts its meeting schedules at fwana.org, and NA's Lone Star Region answers 888-629-6757 around the clock. Meetings are free, and there's nothing to sign up for.

Updated October 28, 2026. General information, not medical advice. We link to the Central Office's and NA's own lists instead of copying them: meeting times change, and they keep them current.

If you need help now: call 911 in an emergency. In a mental health or substance use crisis, call or text 988, any time. In Tarrant County, you can call or text MHMR's 24/7 ICARE line, 1-800-866-2465. If you drink heavily every day, talk to a doctor before you stop: alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous, and a meeting doesn't replace medical care (see alcohol detox in Texas).

The Fort Worth Central Office of AA

The Fort Worth Central Office is the local AA office (an intergroup) for the area's AA groups, not a treatment program or a government agency. Its phones are answered 24/7 at 817-332-3533 or 800-396-1602. The office itself, on West 5th Street, is open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. It says email is read only during business hours, so for anything urgent, call the 817 number.

AA describes what central offices do in general: answer calls from people who want help, keep the local meeting list current, sell AA literature, and when it makes sense, put a newcomer in touch with a member who'll go with them to a meeting. If you'd like that, ask when you call.

Which counties the Fort Worth Central Office covers

Its service area is Tarrant County and 16 other counties: Archer, Clay, Comanche, Denton, Eastland, Erath, Hood, Jack, Johnson, Montague, Palo Pinto, Parker, Stephens, Wichita, Wise and Young, plus any AA group for which Fort Worth is the closest central office.

So one list and one phone number cover Arlington and the rest of Tarrant County, and nearby counties including Denton, Johnson, Parker and Wichita. Dallas and Dallas County have their own office: see AA meetings in Dallas.

How to find an AA meeting in Fort Worth tonight

  1. Open Find a Meeting on fortworthaa.org and look at today's upcoming meetings. You can narrow the list to your part of the service area.
  2. Or use AA's free Meeting Guide app, which pulls meetings from local AA offices' lists and lets you search by place, day, time and type.
  3. Nothing left today, or not sure which to pick? Call 817-332-3533, day or night.
  4. Check before you go. Groups change times and rooms, and some close; the list is updated when they tell the office.

AA meetings in Arlington, TX

Arlington doesn't need a separate search: it's in Tarrant County, so its AA meetings are on the Fort Worth Central Office's list, which has Arlington as its own region, in person and online. The same 24/7 numbers, 817-332-3533 or 800-396-1602, can help. For NA in Arlington, search na.org's meeting finder by city, or call the helpline of NA's Lone Star Region, which includes the Dallas and Fort Worth areas, 888-629-6757. For treatment, see addiction treatment in Arlington.

Spanish-language AA in Fort Worth: the Spanish Intergroup

The Central Office's site has a page for the Spanish Intergroup of Fort Worth-area AA, with its own phone, 817-921-6882. Call it to ask about Spanish-language meetings near you. For NA in Spanish, the Lone Star Region's line is 888-600-6229. For treatment in Spanish, see Spanish-speaking addiction treatment in Fort Worth.

NA meetings in Fort Worth (Narcotics Anonymous)

The Fort Worth Area of Narcotics Anonymous posts its meeting schedules as a printable list and a map. Its guide to the schedule explains the one mark to know: a time in parentheses is a closed meeting, for addicts only; every other meeting is open to anyone, though only addicts are asked to share. The Fort Worth Area belongs to NA's Lone Star Region, whose 24-hour helpline is 1-888-NA-WORKS (888-629-6757), with a Spanish line at 888-600-6229. Na.org's meeting finder and the My NA app work too. NA has no dues or fees.

Online and Zoom AA meetings from Fort Worth

The Central Office keeps a separate online meetings page for Fort Worth-area groups that meet online, including Arlington groups. For more choices at any hour, the Online Intergroup of A.A. keeps a worldwide directory of meetings by video, phone, email and chat, and AA's FAQ on online meetings explains how they work. For NA online, use the virtual NA meeting search.

What to expect at your first AA meeting

You don't sign in or give your name. Someone chairs and may ask if anyone is new; you can say so or stay quiet. Members share their experience, a speaker tells their story, or the group studies AA literature. A basket goes around, and giving is voluntary: AA has no dues or fees. AA's one request is that you don't repeat who you saw there. "Open" meetings welcome anyone, while "closed" ones are for people who want to stop drinking. Our guide to AA and NA meetings in Texas has more on formats and on what the research says about AA.

Court-ordered AA meetings and attendance slips in Fort Worth

AA itself keeps no attendance records. Its answer on proof of attendance is that each group decides whether to help: some have a member initial the slip your court or program gave you, and online groups may use a digital method. We didn't find a court-slip policy on the Central Office's site, so ask your probation officer or program what proof they accept, then ask the group's secretary before the meeting.

Al-Anon and Alateen in Fort Worth

If someone you love drinks, Al-Anon is for you, and Alateen is its group for teens. Start with the Fort Worth Al-Anon and Alateen Information Service, or al-anon.org's meeting search for face-to-face, phone and online meetings; Al-Anon's national line is 1-888-425-2666. Our guide to Al-Anon, Nar-Anon and family support in Texas explains each group and CRAFT, the family approach with the best record for getting a loved one into treatment.

Treatment, sober living and recovery support in Fort Worth

AA and NA are support, not treatment. If you drink or use every day, or keep going back after trying meetings, add care. Cima Find Care is a free directory: you call programs directly, and no one pays us for referrals.
