ACA New York Intergroup (ACANYIG) is the New York Area service entity assisting local meetings and local recovering people connect. We are fully recognized and affiliated with the ACA World Services Organization.

Adult Children of Alcoholics/Dysfunctional Families (ACA) is a Twelve Step, Twelve Tradition program of people who grew up in dysfunctional homes.

We meet to share our experience of growing up in an environment where abuse, neglect and trauma infected us. This affects us today and influences how we deal with all aspects of our lives.

ACA provides a safe, nonjudgmental environment that allows us to grieve our childhoods and conduct an honest inventory of ourselves and our family—so we may (i) identify and heal core trauma, (ii) experience freedom from shame and abandonment, and (iii) become our own loving parents.

ACA Diversity Statement

ACA is an inclusive organization and open to all affected by family dysfunction. We strive to create an atmosphere that reflects the diverse communities we serve and where everyone feels empowered to be their full, authentic selves.

We Welcome all ACA Members

We encourage all local meetings to elect an Intergroup Representative. They are encouraged to attend our monthly business meetings to learn about what goes on above the group level and also let us know how we can best support you!
