Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In Louisana, closed AA meetings are only available for members of AA and individuals seeking help for alcohol addiction. This allows participants to share details about their recovery that are best understood by other alcoholics. The discussions are informal and everyone can participate.

Step Meeting: Louisiana AA centers often include step meetings in their programs. Clients can talk about their recovery experience and how they compare with those in AA texts. The group then makes a commitment to better their recovery by the next meeting.
