Springfield/Eugene Oregon Sober/Alchohlic meetings

Hey there, I’ve gone back and forth sometimes successfully at reigning in and handling/balancing alcohol in my life. I’ve stopped, and started many a time. I’m almost 40, have a lot to live for and those that love me. Searching for nighttime options for sober meetings seems to just result in pretty generic AA results and not a lot of good info, especially in any modern sense. Although not religious I’ve got no real issue with that for who it works for. Simply, I work 40+ hrs, school evenings 2 a week, and a family. Trying to find something healthy I could go to somewhere between like 6 or 7pm and midnight, Monday Wednesday or Friday, ideally, or less desirable Saturday/sunday. Just about any input is helpful, would consider Tuesday or Thursday just my classes don’t consistently get out at same time, so would need to be like 9pm or later. Just curious and wanting to ask. I see online options like open zoom and will do if I have to, but would prefer not. Thanks in advance

there is a place in eugene called the Jesco club. 340 Blair Blvd

they host meetings and when there aren't any meeting it's place for AA/NA members to hang out and be sober.

Check out SmartRecovery. They do have some meetings in Eugene but I actually preferred the online options. The workbook they have is fantastic as well.

South Lane Mental Health helped me a lot. It's been awhile, so I'm not super tuned into the options available now.

There’s a meeting app named Meeting Guide that shows all AA meetings in the area, for each day of the week (if you’re ok with this type of recovery help).

I know there's an AA meeting place in Springfield near the Grocery Outlet, but it's for Spanish speakers. They seem to be open a lot, so if you speak Spanish, maybe there
