Types of AA Meetings
Big Book: AA programs in Tennessee often inspire participants with stories in the Big Book. Clients discuss the lives of real people who successfully managed their alcohol use disorder and how they can do the same.
Discussion: In Tennessee, AA discussion meetings center around a particular topic that relates to alcohol addiction and recovery. Group leaders will open the meeting by sharing their personal thoughts and experiences that relate to the topic, then allow other members to share. Topics typically come from AA texts, including the Big Book.
Open: In Tennessee, open AA meetings are accessible to anyone from the public, including alcoholics and nonalcoholics. During the meeting, members can share their stories and provide information about the organization, while observers can listen and learn.
Step Meeting: AA groups in Tennessee use step meetings to update their progress in the 12 Step Program. Members read from Twelve Steps, discuss how the passages compare with their experience, and recommend ways to enhance their progress by the next meeting.
Wheelchair Access: In Tennessee, AA centers generally feature wheelchair access to enable non-ambulatory clients to fully participate in meetings. The centers may have exterior ramps, designated parking, and safe navigation in meeting halls, restrooms, and amenities.
