Types of AA Meetings
12 Steps & 12 Traditions: Maryland's AA embraces the 12 steps, providing essential support for those on the path to recovery. Open meetings offer a supportive community for individuals and their loved ones, promoting healing and growth.
Birthday: In AA, birthdays refer to the last day (or the day after) that a member used alcohol or drugs. Birthday anniversaries are celebrated as milestones to encourage sobriety.
Closed: In Maryland, closed AA meetings are not accessible to the general public. The only people who can attend are current members and individuals who recognize they have a problem with drinking and want to find help. Discussions are informal and participation is encouraged.
Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Maryland are designed to be conversational and informative. Leaders will choose a theme for discussion that relates to alcohol addiction and recovery, often pulling inspiration from an AA text, such as Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. After sharing briefly, they’ll invite others to join in.
Newcomer: AA newcomer meetings in Maryland give members a chance to share the AA recovery model with people who want help for alcohol addiction but aren’t familar with the 12 step program. Participants are encouraged to ask questions and may receive an overview of Steps 1, 2, and 3.
Women: Women’s AA meetings in Maryland are peer support meetings for women who are affected by alcoholism, including women with alcohol addiction and those who have loved ones who are addicted to alcohol. These meetings, which use a 12-step recovery program, are free for women of all ages to attend.
