Types of AA Meetings

Big Book: Idaho AA centers often feature discussions on the Big Book. The Big Book contains dozens of stories about women and men who successfully managed their alcohol use disorder and can inspire clients.

Closed: In Idaho, closed AA meetings are only available to members and individuals seeking help for alcoholism. This allows participants to share personal details about their recovery journeys without outside observance. Discussions are casual and everyone is encouraged to participate.

Women: Women’s AA meetings in Idaho are peer support meetings for women affected by alcohol addiction. These group meetings use a 12-step curriculum to guide participants through all stages of alcoholism recovery. They are open to all women at no charge, including women of all ages.
