Online / Phone Meetings

Meetings we know are ONLINE can now be found by choosing “ONLINE MEETING ” in the drop down “Meeting Type” on the “Meetings” page. They are listed in GREEN.

Local meetings in Denver-Metro that have moved to a virtual space and provided us with their information are marked on this website as “ONLINE” or “PHONE”.

  1. Click on “FIND MEETINGS
  2. Choose from the “Any Type” drop down: “Online Meeting”. Type “PHONE” in the search feature to find a meeting accessible by phone.
  3. DOUBLE CLICK on that meeting name. Then read under “Meeting Information” on how to get connected to the virtual space. If a password is required it will be listed in this space. All of these meetings are Mountain time (MDT).

As places begin to open up meetings spaces are no longer designated as “Location Temporarily Closed”. Some meetings have let us know that they are doing BOTH online & in-person meetings. Please keep in mind most in-person meetings are adhering to city, state, or county Social Distancing Guidelines. Each group is autonomous so you will need to find out from the groups themselves how they are deciding to do it. If your group would like to let others know you are meeting both online & in-person; or if your group has a device set up in the room let us know & we can mark “IN-PERSON / ONLINE” next to your meeting name.
