Where near San Mateo are the meetings held?

Is a sponsor the same as a counselor?

A sponsor is the person you call before you use rather than afterwards. The usual way it happens is that you hear somebody speak, decide you want what they have, and ask them after the meeting. Going to meetings first and asking later is the normal order.

What is the NA program?

The twelve steps are the program members work through, usually with a sponsor, over a long stretch of time. Attending a meeting does not require working any of them, and nobody will ask which step you are on. Going this week does not commit you to anything that follows it.

Which meeting should I go to first?

It matters less than people expect. Groups differ, but any of them is a meeting. If a group does not suit you, that is information about the group rather than about meetings. Try two or three over a couple of weeks before deciding anything.
