About this meeting
This Men's meeting runs online every Thursday at 2pm, UK and Ireland time, giving members an afternoon slot outside the usual evening rush of ACA meetings. It brings men together to talk about growing up with a parent's drinking or other family dysfunction, and how that upbringing continues to shape adult life. Adult Children of Alcoholics, or ACA, is not about stopping any drinking of your own; it is about recognising and working through the effects of that childhood experience. The meeting is open, so friends, partners and professionals interested in the fellowship are also welcome to sit in alongside men who identify with the Adult Children of Alcoholics experience. Newcomers can listen quietly for as long as they want before joining the conversation.
