What is ESCYPAA? The Empire State Convention of Young People in Alcoholics Anonymous (ESCYPAA) exists to further the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous by planning & hosting an annual Convention for young people in AA. The Convention provides an opportunity for AA members, regardless of age, to come together & share their experience, strength & hope as members of Alcoholics Anonymous. Our hope is that Convention attendees return to their home groups better prepared to welcome young people into their local AA community. Don’t worry – “young” simply means room to grow!
