LADIES LIVE & LET LIVE

Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In Louisana, closed AA meetings are only available for members of AA and individuals seeking help for alcohol addiction. This allows participants to share details about their recovery that are best understood by other alcoholics. The discussions are informal and everyone can participate.

Newcomer: In Louisiana, AA newcomer meetings give seasoned members a chance to share more about the 12 step structure with individuals who aren’t as familiar with the program. These meetings usually include an overview of the first three steps in the recovery model.

Women: Women’s AA meetings in Louisiana are peer support meetings for women who are affected by alcohol addiction, including women who are addicted to alcohol and those who have loved ones with alcohol addiction. Held at various locations within the community, these meetings use a 12-step addiction recovery curriculum and are open to all women at no charge.
