Women’s Honesty

Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In Pennsylvania, closed AA meetings are not open to general members of the community. The only people who may attend are members of AA and individuals who know they have a drinking problem and want to find help.

Step Meeting: Step meetings are part of the 12 Step Program in Pennsylvania AA centers. Groups read AA texts like Twelve Steps, discuss how the passages fit their experience, and come up with goals to improve their recovery in the next meeting.

Women: Pennsylvania women’s AA meetings are group meetings for women who are impacted by alcoholism - those who have alcohol addiction and those who have loved ones with alcoholism. Open to women of all ages in the community, these meetings follow a 12-step recovery program and are free to attend.
