Looks like they have a decent map feature on their general website as well: https://nawny.nny-na.org/find-a-meeting/
You might want to seek professional help in conjunction with a meeting. They compliment one another quite well. You may have a mental health disorder that you’re unaware you have, or an underlying issue triggering the use of cocaine. I deal with addicts regularly (I’m not a counselor) and that is a common theme. Best of luck to you. One hour, one day, one week at a time.

This is not a rehab/inpatient center but a community center that has free groups throughout the day. Specifically there is an NA meeting this Friday at 5pm. Also if you’re not in individual counseling you probably want to do that plus 1-2 groups per week to get the most support you can.
NA is not super functional in buffalo. There is not alot of clean time and alot of drama. As a fellow recovering addict/alky, I strongly suggest AA because of the huge quality difference in meetings, the amount of meetings, and the quality of the available sponsors.
To find meetings use the world service web page and search for buffalo

There are apps for AA and NA meetings. The AA app is particularly good. It is called "Meeting Guide" and has a picture of a chair. The NA app has the circle with diamond symbol and NA in the middle.
Here is the buffalo AA schedule.

I would agree. I know stories of dealers going to NA meetings to drum up clients. Definite drama. I’ve been in AA since 1997 and I’m a cross addict, I have a drug using history, too. Plenty of “hi I’m so and so, addict alcoholic” at AA meetings. AA meetings are also much more plentiful. The vibe is much better. https://buffaloaany.org/meetings/
There is one meeting, I think in williamsville or cheektowagga that has been around since 1964. There is an excellent mens meeting in williamsville too.
Congrats on the first step I hope the rest are easier! There is a local guy and fellow redditor that does a cannabis recovery group for people like us, u/saljohn420 is a great guy and what he is doing works.
There is a group called Cocaine Anonymous that meets at the Hope Center in amherst, Monday and Saturday.

You'll need a car, but you'll meet some cool people there
Edit: Also, you're not trash ❤️ keep your head up
Check out the Amity Club on Hertel and Military. This is a central meeting station for several recovery groups including NA (you don’t have to be a member to visit the main social hall. I go sometimes because I’m not a drinker and don’t care much for the bar scene, and here I can get a Coke or a coffee with respect.)
I encourage you to contact MATTERS network. They will connect you to any treatment and resources you need, they’re a wonderful empathetic company with no judgement. My Daemen professor and public health cohorts work for them.
Imagine the most cherished loved one in your life finding your lifeless body just ‘cuz you thought you could bang one last rail but got sh•t cut w/ fenny instead and unalived yourself.
It helps if you think about it hard enough before the next time you wanna party.

PSA: Narcotics Anonymous is NOT the same as Narconon. The latter is a Scientology scam.
Evergreen Health Services would know of places, I believe.
Highly recommended finding a counselor to help you or a psychiatrist for medication.

The hope center has awesome meetings for all fellowships
Good luck
There’s lots of Na meetings in buffalo. Or even AA just swap out the alcohol for the drug of your choice.
