🗣️ Share your Experience, Strength, & Hope

When you share your experience, strength, and hope, you offer something truly powerful to others in recovery.

For many newcomers, even a single day can feel overwhelming. Minutes and hours may seem impossible to get through. Hearing from someone who has walked the same path—and found a way to live one day at a time—can make all the difference.

Your story may be the very thing that helps another person realize they are not alone, that recovery is possible, and that there is hope beyond the struggle. By speaking from the heart, you give courage to those who are searching for a new way to live.

Sharing is not only an act of service—it is also a gift to your own recovery.

Every time we speak our truth, we remind ourselves of where we came from and how far we’ve come. Carrying the message keeps us connected to the program, to each other, and to the principles that guide us.

Your voice matters. Your story matters. You never know who might be waiting to hear the words that only you can offer.

Share your story. Carry the message. Sign-up to speak below.

NAAG | Guidelines For Meeting/Podium Speakers

Thank you for your willingness to share your experience with the Never Alone Again Group.

The following guidelines are intended to support our group conscience and ensure a safe, consistent, and welcoming environment for all—especially newcomers.

Before submitting the Speaker Request Form:

Please review the meeting schedule and identify a day and time that is currently vacant. Speaker requests may only be made for meetings not designated as Reading/Literature, Anniversary, or Beginner’s Meetings. (All times are listed in EST.)

Group Conscience Guidelines

All speakers must identify as an alcoholic when sharing from the (figurative) meeting podium.
A minimum of 90 days continuous sobriety is required before sharing your Experience, Strength, and Hope (ESH).
Please sign up only once every 90 days to speak. Volunteering during a meeting without a scheduled speaker does not count toward this guideline.
The Friday Night Beginner’s Meeting requires a minimum of 3 years continuous sobriety to speak from the podium. These guidelines apply to speakers only. All are warmly encouraged to attend any meeting.

Information for Guest Speakers

Arrival – Please join the meeting a few minutes before your scheduled time and alert the host that you are present. The meeting room typically opens 25 minutes prior to the start.
Introduction – About 5 minutes after the meeting begins, the host will introduce you. At that point, you will have approximately 15–20 minutes to share how AA has influenced your recovery through your experience, strength, and hope. Some speakers find it useful to keep a timer handy.
Respecting the Space – Remember this is an 'Open Meeting'. Unlike in-person meetings, we enter virtually into members’ homes and personal spaces. Please avoid inappropriate language or material. The absence of profanity will offend no one.
Choosing a Topic – After your share, the Host will invite you to suggest a discussion topic for the group. Feel free to be as creative as you wish.
Closing Prayer – At the end of the meeting, the Host will ask you to “close us out with a prayer of your choice.” Please note that you will likely be reciting this prayer aloud while other participants remain muted.
