Wednesday Night Stag Group

Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In Utah, closed AA meetings are restricted to just members of AA and people who realize they have a drinking problem and want to take steps toward recovery. The discussions include topics that are best understood by others who have taken this path before and have insights to share.

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.

Men: Men may participate in 12 Step Programs to recover from alcohol use disorder at no cost. AA chapters in Utah may offer men-only meetings that focus on the health issues that concern men of all ages
