Serenity Sisters in Sobriety

Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: In Ohio, AA discussion meetings center around one specific aspect of alcohol addiction and recovery. Leaders begin by sharing their own thoughts and experiences related to the topic, which often comes from an AA text, such as the Big Book. Then, others can join in and add their own reflections.

Speaker: Ohio AA members may invite motivational speakers to help their resolve against relapse. Speakers are usually AA alumni and use a blend of humor, reason, emotions, and faith to encourage sobriety.

Women: Ohio women’s AA meetings are group support meetings for women who are impacted by alcohol addiction. Open to all women in the community, including women with alcoholism and those who have loved ones with alcohol addiction, these meetings are free to attend and offer community support alongside a 12-step recovery curriculum.
