Types of AA Meetings

12 Steps & 12 Traditions: Wyoming's AA 12 Step and Traditions program welcomes individuals in all stages of recovery. Individuals can seek support in a nurturing environment that is peer and/or mentor led. Meetings are inclusive, are held regularly, and provide comprehensive support recovering individuals can depend on.

Big Book: In Wyoming, AA programs prominently use the Big Book in discussion groups. This book contains stories about real women and men who successfully managed their alcohol use disorder and can inspire participants to do the same.

Closed: Closed AA meetings in Wyoming are available to AA members only, as well as anyone who recognizes they have an alcohol addiction and wants to seek help. Leaders will facilitate the discussions, which typically revolve around one aspect of alcoholism and recovery.

Open: In Wyonming, open AA meetings are accessible to anyone from the public who wants to learn more about the AA model of alcohol addiction recovery, including the 12 step program. This includes alcoholics seeking help on their sobriety journey as well as their friends, relatives, and loved ones.
