Calibrated claims
We distinguish established guidance from personal experience, product description, and editorial interpretation. We avoid guarantees about sobriety, treatment outcomes, diagnosis, relapse prevention, or meeting availability.
Trust & safety
Editorial Policy
Recovery information can affect consequential health and safety decisions. Our standard is to be useful without overstating certainty, credentials, evidence, or what a meeting-finder product can do.

Scope
Where these standards apply
This policy applies to MyMeetings educational articles, recovery guides, self-assessment explanations, research pages, meeting-directory context, and organization-facing educational content. Product interfaces and legal policies may use separate review processes appropriate to their function.
Our public content is informational. It does not establish a clinician-patient relationship and is not medical diagnosis, treatment, legal advice, or an individualized care plan.
Health and safety standards
How we handle YMYL recovery topics
Qualified help
When a question requires diagnosis, withdrawal management, medication advice, or individualized treatment, we direct readers to qualified healthcare or substance-use professionals.
Primary sources
Health thresholds and safety guidance should be supported by authoritative sources such as NIAAA, SAMHSA, CDC, WHO, or peer-reviewed evidence. AA program facts should be checked against AA.org or the relevant local service office.
Respectful language
We avoid shame, fear-based persuasion, and claims that one recovery pathway is right for everyone. We distinguish peer support from clinical care and acknowledge non-AA support options where relevant.
Sources & attribution
What readers should be able to verify
- Material medical, public-health, legal, and statistical claims should link to an authoritative or original source.
- Meeting schedules and access details should be attributed to the underlying listing or local service-office source when the record supplies one.
- Product claims should reflect implemented behavior. Illustrative interface numbers must not be presented as customer results.
- Research pages must define the unit counted, snapshot date, calculation, exclusions, and limitations. A route count is not presented as a meeting count, and missing accessibility data is not treated as proof of inaccessibility.
- Sponsored, affiliate, or commercial relationships must be disclosed near the relevant content. We do not describe an external listing as an endorsement merely because we link to it.
Software and AI use
Tools may assist; accountability stays with MyMeetings
MyMeetings may use software tools, including generative AI, to assist with research organization, outlines, drafting, editing, summarization, code, or quality checks. Tool output is not treated as a source and does not independently establish that a claim is true.
Before publication, material claims should be checked against the cited source or the implemented product. AI-assisted text must not invent statistics, quotations, lived experience, professional credentials, meeting details, or affiliations. We use conservative language when the available evidence does not support a stronger conclusion.
Because workflows can vary by page and over time, this disclosure does not claim that every page uses AI or that every sentence has the same production history. Questions about a specific page can be sent to hello@mymeetings.co.
Corrections
How corrections are handled
Send the URL, disputed statement or listing field, proposed correction, and supporting source to hello@mymeetings.co. We review the evidence and correct verified errors in the editorial page or underlying listing workflow as appropriate.
Substantive research changes should update the page’s modification date and explain the affected method or result. Minor spelling, formatting, and broken-link fixes may be made without a correction note. We do not remove accurate information solely because it is unfavorable, but we will remove unnecessary personal information and address privacy or safety concerns.
Urgent help
This site is not an emergency or crisis service
If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 911 in the United States. For suicide or mental-health crisis support, call or text 988. For U.S. treatment information and referral, call SAMHSA’s National Helpline at 1-800-662-HELP (4357).
Alcohol withdrawal can be life-threatening. If heavy drinking, prior withdrawal, seizures, hallucinations, severe confusion, or other concerning symptoms are involved, seek urgent medical care rather than relying on this website or stopping abruptly without medical guidance.
