Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In Wisconsin, closed AA meetings are not open to the general public and nonalcoholics cannot attend. The only people who may attend are AA members and individuals who understand they have a drinking problem and want to begin recovery. The discussions are informal and everyone can share.

Speaker: Wisconsin AA centers may invite a speaker as part of its program. In their speeches, speakers motivate AA audiences to commit to sobriety through humor, charm, emotions, reason, and charm.

Women: Wisconsin AA meetings for women are women-exclusive peer support meetings for those who are affected by alcoholism - women who are addicted to alcohol or who have loved ones suffering from alcohol addiction. Welcoming women of all ages to attend at no cost, these meetings offer support and peer fellowship with the guidance of a 12-step recovery program.
