2025-01-30 08:00 - 2025-02-02 17:00 | Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego, 1 Market PL, San Diego, California, 92101, United States
The International Women’s Conference is the bridge to a better understanding of the Alcoholics Anonymous philosophy and way of life because of our special needs in sobriety as women. We as women members of Alcoholic Anonymous are survivors. We have found a way to obtain meaning, depth and responsibility in our lives. This came about out of desire, decision, determination and spiritual guidance. An elevated sense of belonging that is brought about by the special services and a special need provided by our Women’s Conference is our goal.

Welcome to the 61st International Women’s Conference

The women of San Diego welcome you to the 61st International Women’s Conference. We look forward to celebrating our sobriety together.
