EVENT HIGHLIGHTS
The OA Birthday Party is an annual celebration of Overeaters Anonymous' founding. Hosted by the Los Angeles Intergroup, the event brings together members from around the world to honor the journey of recovery from compulsive eating and compulsive food behaviors. Through meetings, workshops, panels, and connection, we carry the message to those who still suffer and reflect on the freedom found in working the Twelve Steps.

Dear Friends in OA,
As we gather to celebrate OA's [67th] Birthday, our theme reminds us of both where recovery begins and where it can take us.
It all starts here—together.
Recovery begins when we become willing, honest about our powerlessness, open to help, and ready to practice abstinence. But abstinence isn't the destination. It is the starting point of a new way of living.
From there, our lives can move in directions we never imagined—toward physical, emotional, and spiritual recovery, deeper relationships, service, connection, freedom, and joy. Our paths may look different and take unexpected turns, but we share a common beginning and a common purpose.
There is special meaning in celebrating here in Los Angeles, where Overeaters Anonymous began. From one small meeting grew a worldwide Fellowship carrying hope to compulsive eaters everywhere.
And now, it starts here again—with each of us.
As we move through this weekend, we invite you to ask:
What can begin here for me?
A renewed abstinence. A deeper recovery. A new connection. A willingness to serve. A hand extended. A life that continues to grow.
Wherever you are on your journey, this weekend can be a starting point.
Welcome. It all starts here.
With love and service,
The OA Birthday Party Committee
