okely-dokely! Here's what I know from the international meeting list I have: Kirkwood: Recommended for newcomers, Wednesdays at 7pm, St. Joseph's Hospital, 525 Couch Avenue, Anita Chase Room (3rd floor by West elevators), contact Bob (314) 965-2059.
St. Louis: Saturdays at 10am, United Church of Christ, 7126 Bruno at Bellevue, church library, side door.
University City: Women only, Sundays at 6:30pm, Episcopal Church of the Holy Communion, 7401 Delmar (between Big Bend and Hanley), downstairs/Jackson St. entrance, contact Judy (314) 993-5421.
You don't have to call or talk to anyone before going, but it can be handy to make sure those meetings are still there and at the same time and everything. Apparently the last time these numbers were verified was in 2000-2001 (for these particular meetings) so I don't know if those are still the numbers... I mean, if the contact number changes they're supposed to let SIA know, but they don't always do that.
As for meetings in general... You can probably get some ideas of what kind of stuff is said and read by checking out the online meeting's site, http://leaves.wineberry.net/sia/online ... people show up, read different things about the program and abuse and the meeting and whatnot, share things (no cross-talk, which is nice cause then nobody tells you what to do unless you ask them for advice yourself) and then hang out afterward if they want. It's a good place for support and learning tools to deal with this kind of stuff.
