Gay meetings

If you think you have a problem with alcohol or dependency to speak with another alcoholic, please call the Boulder County Intergroup hotline number at

Unwanted disruptions are taking place during some online meetings using the Zoom videoconference service.* Experience from A.A. members and Intergroups suggests groups can decrease these disruptions by using specific safety and privacy features available on that service, and by giving service responsibilities to members to deal with safety and disruption concerns. Some suggestions from members and other Intergroups  include:

• Disable File Transfer
• Disable Screen Sharing for Users
• Disable ability for attendees to un-mute themselves
• Consider locking meetings after the meeting starts
• Have a Co-Host who can mute/unmute participants and if necessary, shift off a participant’s video/remove a disruptive participant
• Disable private chat and chat recording
• Set your username for anonymity

The following links and resources share tactics and tools that can help groups continue holding online meetings in a safer and less disruptive way:
