GPI OA has about 30 meetings within our intergroup area.* Each meeting occurs weekly, is one hour long unless otherwise noted. Many Face-To-Face meetings are wheelchair accessible; please confirm wheelchair access info with the meeting contact person before attending. All Face to Face meetings are non smoking.
Please note that there is no limit to how many meetings you can attend. Many members have found that attending more than one meeting a week has helped them to get and stay abstinent.
If you can’t find a Face-To-Face meeting in your area, or need more meetings than your area offers, consider an online, telephone meeting, or non real time meeting. These meetings can be located at the appropriate link on the Find a Meeting page on the main OA website (www.oa.org). These are a great resource when face-to-face meetings can’t be found in your area, you find yourself homebound, or just you just need additional support. You can find some additional options on our Homebound Support page.
If you will be observing an OA meeting, we ask that you first read our Observers' Etiquette.
In accordance with our traditions, our meeting list is only to be used to find meetings, not for any solicitations or other purpose.

The members of Greater Pittsburgh Intergroup of Overeaters Anonymous welcome visitors to OPEN meetings. You may wish to attend to learn about OA to complete a school assignment, to expand your professional knowledge, or to support a loved one.
However, as per our Twelve Traditions, in particular tradition #6, Overeaters Anonymous does not affiliate in any way with outside organizations. Therefore, you may not attend any OA meeting for the purpose of recruiting people for any purpose, either for profit -- such as looking for new clients for your business -- or non profit -- such as looking for research study participants.
We ask that you observe the following courtesies:
If you're interested in starting a new meeting, please see the following links for helpful information:
Members of GPI who have started long lasting (ten years or more) urban or suburban Face to Face meetings have some additional suggestions:
Sometimes there is no longer enough support for a meeting and it is time for that group to close permanently. Given the lack of guidance in OA literature regarding proper procedure when closing a meeting, GPI suggests that, should a meeting need to dissolve, the group conscience consider the following:
* The geographic area of Greater Pittsburgh intergroup consists of portions of Western PA (Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Bedford, Blair, Butler, Cambria, Clarion, Crawford, Erie, Fayette, Greene, Indiana, Jefferson, Somerset, Venango, Washington, and Westmoreland counties), the western WV panhandle and portions of northwest WV (Brooke, Hancock, Harrison, Marion, Marshall, Monongalia, Ohio, and Taylor counties), and bordering portions of OH (western Belmont and Jefferson counties).
