AA Meeting Green Bay

Types of AA Meetings

12 Steps & 12 Traditions: Wisconsin's AA programs, founded on the research-backed 12 steps and traditions, offer a warm and supportive community for individuals seeking recovery. Through regular meetings led by peers and mentors, lasting change is within reach.

Big Book: The Big Book is a collection of stories about real people who overcame alcoholism. AA programs in Wisconsin feature the Big Book in discussion groups to inspire participants.

Closed: In Wisconsin, closed AA meetings are not open to the general public and nonalcoholics cannot attend. The only people who may attend are AA members and individuals who understand they have a drinking problem and want to begin recovery. The discussions are informal and everyone can share.

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Wisconsin give all members the chance to speak on one common subject related to alcohol addiction and recovery. These topics may tie into an AA text, such as the Big Book. Leaders will share first, and then the floor is open for other members to provide their input.

Step Meeting: Wisconsin AA centers often feature step meetings within their programs. Members discuss AA literature and their own experiences before strategizing on how to make their recovery stronger throughout the 12 Step program.

Wheelchair Access: In Wisconsin, non-ambulatory clients participate in AA meetings through wheelchair access. Facilities may include exterior ramps, designated parking, and open floor spaces for safe navigation.
