In 1988 there were SA meetings in Germany, Washington D.C., Simi Valley and the LA area, San Diego, Nashville, Oklahoma City, Salt Lake City, Portland (Oregon), Seattle, Chicago, New York City, Boston, St. Louis, Rochester, and a few other cities. At that time Nashville had six meetings per week, which we believe was the most per capita in the world! Today SA has meetings around the world, on all continents except Antarctica.
The first International Conference of SA/S-Anon outside North America took place in Israel in January, 2017. About 750 registered for the three days. Strong Regions and Intergroups exist in North America, Europe, Germany, Taiwan, Australia, Israel, and Iran. The Regions have conferences as well as the Intergroups. Translation of SA literature into a variety of languages occurs with and without coordination with SA International Central Office (SAICO).
