Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Washington give all members the chance to talk about a certain topic that relates to alcohol addiction and recovery. Leaders will select the topic beforehand, often referencing an AA text, such as the Big Book, for inspiration. They will share first, then others can add their own reflections.

Open: In Washington, open AA meetings are not restricted to members only. Anyone is welcome to attend and learn more about how the program works and what the 12 step model of recovery includes. This includes individuals seeking help for alcohol addiction as well as nonalcoholics who want to support a friend or loved one in recovery.
