No Laurels (Women-only meeting)

Types of AA Meetings

Big Book: Utah AA programs often feature the Big Book in discussion groups. This anthology is a collection of stories about real people who successfully controlled their alcohol use disorder and can inspire participants to do the same.

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Utah revolve around a certain topic that relates to alcoholism and recovery. These topics normally come from a designated AA text, such as Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. After the leader shares their personal thoughts on the subject, other members can participate in the discussion.

Open: Open AA meetings in Utah are not restricted to members only. Anyone from the public can attend to learn more about how the program works, what the 12 step recovery model includes, and how they can support someone they know with alcohol addiction. Members may share their personal stories and recovery journeys while non-members can listen and observe.

Sign Language: Some AA chapters may have a sign-language interpreter. The interpreter provides American sign language for members who may be hard of hearing or are speech impaired.

Wheelchair Access: Non-ambulatory clients in Utah may have wheelchair access for their AA meetings. The centers may have designated parking, exterior ramps, and open floor plans for safe navigation throughout the facility.

Women: Utah AA meetings for women are women-centered support group meetings for community members who are impacted by alcohol addiction - those who are suffering from alcoholism as well as those who have loved ones with alcohol addiction. Open for women of all ages to attend at no cost, these meetings offer peer support and are guided by a 12-step addiction recovery program.
