Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In West Virginia, closed AA meetings are only accessible to current AA members and individuals seeking help for alcohol addiction. The discussions are informal in nature and everyone is encouraged to contribute. Nonalcoholics cannot attend these meetings.

Discussion: In West Virginia, AA discussion meetings center on one topic, usually derived from an AA text, such as Daily Reflections or the AA Grapevine. Leaders will choose the topic beforehand and share their personal experiences and reflections first. Then, other members can join the conversation.

Women: West Virginia AA meetings for women are women-centered peer support meetings for those who are affected by alcohol addiction - women who suffer from alcoholism or who have loved ones with 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.
