Starting a new CEA-HOW meeting is easy—and encouraged!

Starting a new CEA-HOW meeting (also called a group) requires two or more people, one of whom must have 30 days of CEA-HOW abstinence, be a qualified food sponsor, and be working with a sponsor of his/her own.

Only those meetings which meet the following criteria may be registered with the World Service Office as a CEA-HOW meeting.

The meeting must:

  • Meet with the purpose of practicing the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of CEA-HOW
  • Welcome all who have a desire to stop eating compulsively
  • Have a minimum of two individuals
  • Have no affiliation other than CEA-HOW
  • Read The Twelve Steps of CEA-HOW, The Twelve Traditions of CEA-HOW, The CEA-HOW Concept, and The Seven Tools of CEA-HOW as written
  • Adhere to abstinence requirements to pitch, per the 7 Tools of CEA-HOW
  • Use only CEA-HOW or AA Conference approved literature. Outside literature is not read or quoted

If your group meets these requirements, please complete the following online form. If you do not know your Area or Intergroup number, we will complete the information for you. After review, WSO will either accept or return the request for additional information.   Upon approval of your Application for Registration, WSO will assign your new meeting number and provide you with instructions and a New Meeting packet to help you get started.
