5th and I Group

Types of AA Meetings

Open: In Alaska, open AA meetings allow anyone from the community to learn more about the organization and how it operates. This includes individuals looking to overcome an alcohol addiction as well as their friends and loved ones. Nonalcoholics can participate as observers to understand the 12 step recovery program and how to address alcohol use disorder.

Virtual: AA groups may opt to hold their meetings virtually. Online sessions can be closed or open and are typically conducted on free platforms such as Zoom.
