Topic Discussion Big Bear

Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in California help members share their thoughts and feelings on a specific topic related to alcoholism and recovery. A pre-determined speaker will open the meeting by sharing a topic from an AA text, such as the Big Book or AA Grapevine. After discussing the topic briefly, they will open the floor for others to speak.

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.
