Types of AA Meetings

Closed: Closed AA meetings in Virginia are not open to anyone outside the AA community. The only people who can attend are members of AA and individuals who recognize they have an alcohol addiction and want to find help. The discussions are informal and everyone can contribute.

Men: In Virginia, AA chapters offer free 12 Step Programs for participants impacted by alcohol use disorder. Select chapters are reserved only for men, so men of all ages can discuss issues that pertain to their health and recovery.

Step Meeting: AA groups in Virginia use step meetings as a central part of the 12 Step Program. Members come together to read from AA texts, discuss how those passages compare to their own experiences, and make recommendations for improvement as their recovery continues.
