Local recovery context
Galveston, TX may have in-person meetings, online meetings, or no current local listing depending on the program. Official locators change more often than directory pages, so confirm time, address, access notes, and meeting format before attending.
For broader help nearby, browse local recovery housing, detox, treatment, AA meetings, and crisis resources. Peer support can be part of a wider plan, but it is not a substitute for medical care when medical care is needed.
