What is Overeaters Anonymous? Overeaters Anonymous (OA) is a Fellowship of individuals who, through shared experience, strength, and hope, are recovering from compulsive overeating. We welcome everyone who wants to stop eating compulsively. There are no dues or fees for members; we are self- supporting through our own contributions, neither soliciting nor accepting outside donations. OA is not affiliated with any public or private organization, political movement, ideology, or religious doctrine; we take no position on outside issues. Our primary purpose is to abstain from compulsive eating and compulsive food behaviors and to carry the message of recovery through the Twelve Steps of OA to those who still suffer.
There are two SWCTOA area meetings with a newcomer focus. See our Meeting List and search for "newcomer" on that page. There's also a "Newcomers - How do I start?" page on this site, linked here, that includes a number of resources, including a "Quiz" to help determine if OA might be right for you, regional newcomer meetings, orientations, or other ongoing events. Finally, here you can find a short brochure (downloadable in 21 languages!) that OA has prepared if you're just getting started.
