Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: In Hawaii, AA discussion meetings allow members to share their opinions and reflections on a particular topic related to alcohol addiction recovery. The leader will typically open the meeting by referencing a relevant AA text, such as the Big Book or Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. Then, they will invite others to reflect on the topic in a group discussion.

Speaker: AA clients in Hawaii frequently attend motivational speakers’ sessions. These messages frequently reinforce clients’ commitment against alcohol by using humor, faith, charm, and raw emotions.
