Welcome Levine. I have been to a few AA meetings online here at soberrecovery. They are good. However, they could never take the place of my face to face meetings. I am a very active member of aa and that helps keep me sober. You can find a lot of support here, and answers to your questions. This site has helped me stay sober when I couldn't find face to face support. I have gotten through cravings by coming here. I am very grateful that I stumbled upon this site last May!

Sherry
