Closed: In Wisconsin, closed AA meetings are not open to the general public and nonalcoholics cannot attend. The only people who may attend are AA members and individuals who understand they have a drinking problem and want to begin recovery. The discussions are informal and everyone can share.
Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Wisconsin give all members the chance to speak on one common subject related to alcohol addiction and recovery. These topics may tie into an AA text, such as the Big Book. Leaders will share first, and then the floor is open for other members to provide their input.
Open: In Wisconsin, open AA meetings are available to everyone in the community. Any person interested in understanding more about AA and the 12 step recovery model is welcome to attend. During the meeting, members may share personal stories and experiences, allowing observers to listen and learn.
Wheelchair Access: In Wisconsin, non-ambulatory clients participate in AA meetings through wheelchair access. Facilities may include exterior ramps, designated parking, and open floor spaces for safe navigation.
Wheelchair-Accessible Bathroom: Selected AA centers offer wheelchair-accessible bathrooms for participants. These bathrooms have enough space for a wheelchair to safely navigate, and can include private stalls with
guardrails, reachable toilet paper and seat cover dispensers, a wash basin, and other amenities.
Women: Wisconsin AA meetings for women are women-exclusive peer support meetings for those who are affected by alcoholism - women who are addicted to alcohol or who have loved ones suffering from alcohol addiction. Welcoming women of all ages to attend at no cost, these meetings offer support and peer fellowship with the guidance of a 12-step recovery program.
