Updates to BIGAA.org
Where did all the meetings go?!

There's been a major overhaul at bigaa.org! All Brooklyn meetings (online and in-person) have been combined into one Meetings list, which can be accessed by clicking or tapping "Meetings" in the main menu.

Please reference this FAQ sheet if you have any questions about this change. The sheet has detailed instructions to find and access meetings with the new design, as well as explanations and information regarding why this change was necessary.

Thank you for your patience during this transition!

Grand Opening: BIGAA Bookstore!

We are happy to announce that groups and individuals can now order literature, coins, and other AA items directly from Brooklyn Intergroup!

How does it work?

Place an order at bigaa.org/shop.
Any in-stock items will be available for pickup immediately.
A Brooklyn Intergroup rep will contact you to set up a time for pickup.
Backordered items will be shipped to Brooklyn Intergroup's main office.
You will receive an email when backordered items are ready for pickup.

Pick up all items at: 1283 Prospect Ave #3 Brooklyn, NY 11218
