Types of AA Meetings

12 Steps & 12 Traditions: Illinois' AA programs provide a lifeline of support through the 12 Steps and Traditions programs. These programs foster a community of recovery among individuals who are navigating similar obstacles. Group meetings welcome all seeking sobriety, offering guidance and hope for a brighter future.

Big Book: In Illinois, AA meetings often feature discussions centered on the Big Book. Clients read this collection of stories about men and women who overcame alcohol use disorder for inspiration.

Daily Reflections: Daily Reflections is an AA text that compiles insight, experience, and encouragement from various members. Selected contents may be topics of discussions in AA meetings. Members can also adapt reflections into their daily activities.

Literature: Literature-centric AA meetings in Illinois are peer support meetings for people who are impacted by alcohol addiction. These group meetings focus on studying AA literature, such as the Big Book of AA and AA workbooks. The 12 step-based sessions are free and open to all ages and genders.

Living Sober: AA centers may have selected sessions set aside for Living Sober discussions. This text is secular in nature, and focuses on practical ways that members have used to stay sober one day at a time.

Men: In Illinois, AA groups that are designated for men only provide 12 Step Programs at no cost. In these meetings, men of all ages can discuss issues that pertain to their recovery from alcohol use disorder.

Open: In Illinois, open AA meetings are available to anyone who wants to learn more about the organization and its 12 step model of recovery. Attendees can include individuals currently seeking treatment for alcohol use disorder as well as friends, relatives, and loved ones of someone battling this addiction.

Professionals: Professionals are individuals who generally have white-collar licensed positions, such as doctors and lawyers, and whose alcohol use disorder may negatively impact their careers. AA meetings for professionals enable these anonymous members to build resilience against drinking before it escalates further.

Step Meeting: AA programs in Illinois often include step meetings. In these meetings, members converse about their recovery as it relates to a 12 Step program and strategize goals to make their recovery stronger.
