What is NECYPAA?
Founded in 1989, the Northeast Convention of Young People in Alcoholics Anonymous brings together young people in recovery for an annual multi-day conference. NECYPAA has been a cornerstone of AA service and fellowship across the Northeast for over three decades.
Fellowship
Connect with young people in recovery from across the Northeast. NECYPAA is built on AA principles and the shared experience of getting and staying sober.
AA Speakers
World-class speaker meetings, workshops, and panels — all grounded in the AA program and the Twelve Steps.
Celebration
Four days of dancing, music, meetings, and memories. Proof that recovery doesn't just work — it's genuinely joyful.
New to NECYPAA?
NECYPAA is for the young and young at heart. The only requirement is an honest desire to stop drinking. All are welcome — come as you are.
