No meeting listed near you? Check the official program’s existing meetings first: our independent directory may not include every active group. If there is still a gap, use the program-specific route below.

1. Begin with the right people and official resources

Read Starting a CMA Meeting and use the Meeting-in-a-Box or the individual formats and readings linked on the official startup page. CMA explains that these guides assist autonomous groups rather than dictate every meeting decision. Official startup resources.

2. Plan the meeting with the appropriate support

With the organizing members, choose a recurring day, start and end time, time zone, language and attendance format. Confirm venue permission, room access, accessibility and costs before advertising a physical address. For an online meeting, choose a host and backup, test the platform and discuss admission controls and privacy.

These planning suggestions help you prepare questions and share responsibilities. They do not replace the organization’s rules. Choose a reliable organizer contact and a backup so enquiries and changes are handled when one person is unavailable.

3. Register or request an official listing

After starting the meeting, follow List the Meeting on that same official page to request inclusion in CMA’s directory. For online and hybrid options, also review the Online Meeting Toolkit linked on the official site. Notify your local CMA service body about any separate local listing. Official registration or contact route.

4. List the established meeting on this website

Use Submit a Meeting and choose Crystal Meth Anonymous. The directory’s review is separate from official registration and does not create an affiliation or approval. Follow the checklist below.

Important details for this program

Use a stable group contact and confirm which joining information the group wants public. This registration process is separate from requesting permission to republish someone else’s directory data.

Directory submission checklist

  1. Open Submit a Meeting. It is free, requires no account and sends information for review before publication.
  2. Enter the meeting name, fellowship, day and start time; select the relevant format and attendance type. Supply the public venue address or the meeting link requested for a virtual meeting, plus the location fields shown.
  3. Use a group contact email if available. The separate submitter email is optional and marked private. Do not publish personal home addresses or private contact details.
  4. Read the submission guidelines, confirm the acknowledgment and select Submit Meeting for Review.

Choose the meeting’s Time Zone in the submission form. Enter the local End Time and First Meeting Date if known, and add the organizer’s public meeting page in Official Source URL. Leave optional details blank if unknown; new groups without a public page can request moderator review. Never put a time zone into the street-address field or invent a physical address for an online meeting. If the location fields do not fit, use the site contact page for help. Do not include private access credentials.

Only provide a joining link the organizers have agreed to publish. If a link is restricted or registration is required, contact the directory about using the organizer’s public information or registration page instead. Do not send passwords, screening answers or confidential access instructions through a public listing field.

This directory’s review is separate from fellowship registration and does not establish official recognition. Tell both the official service office and this site when details change or a meeting closes.

5. Keep records and listings current

Agree who will maintain the organization’s records, any local meeting schedule and this directory. Recheck public information after a change of venue, host or service contact, and report a suspension or closure promptly. Publish only information the organizers have agreed to share; never publish participant identities or private access details.

Outside the United States

For groups outside the United States, use the same official resource to find the appropriate country or regional service contact. Ask which local process applies; U.S. requirements and forms should not be assumed to apply worldwide.

12 Step National Meetings is an independent directory. Official program requirements take precedence over these editorial planning suggestions. A listing does not establish endorsement, organizer certification or clinical accreditation.
