Wednesday Women’s

Types of AA Meetings

Child-Friendly: Child-friendly AA meetings allow each member to bring up to one child to the meeting, with the expectation that the discussion will not feature experiences or language that are inappropriate for the child. Formal childcare may not be available, but the member can watch over her child while participating in the discussion.

Closed: Closed AA meetings in Missouri are not available to the general public and observers are not allowed. The only people who can attend are members of AA and individuals seeking help for alcohol addiction. The discussions are informal and group participation is encouraged.

Women: Women’s AA meetings in Missouri are peer group meetings for women who are affected by alcohol addiction. Open to all women at no charge, including women with alcohol addiction and those who have loved ones with alcoholism, these support meetings follow a 12-step recovery curriculum.
