At my groups it's "standard procedure" to pass around a meeting list for phone numbers for newcomers. The men provide numbers for the men, and the women for the women.
Ya never know when you might need those--I had a sewer COMPLETLY flood my basement on my fourth day sober. I called one of the women on my list (I wasn't even sure which one she was of the many women I met at my first meetings), and she got me calmed down, then called me back later to make sure I was OK. Later that night, a neighbor knocked on my door and put a cold beer in my hand, saying she "figured I could use it." Maybe, if I hadn't made that call, I would have taken it. As it was, I was able to refuse it, and I haven't had a serious urge to drink since.
