Types of AA Meetings

12 Steps & 12 Traditions: Colorado's AA programs embrace the 12 Steps and Traditions model, offering a lifeline of support for those battling addiction. Meetings are open to all individuals and their loved ones and reinforce the reality that recovery is a journey that is better traveled with the support and guidance of peers.

Closed: Closed AA meetings in Colorado are restricted to just members or anyone who has a drinking problem and wants to seek help. Discussions are informal. Everyone is encouraged to participate and share about their alcohol addiction and recovery journey.

Step Meeting: In Colorado, step meetings are provided in AA programs. In step meetings, clients read passages from AA texts, talk about their own progress in that step, and suggest strategies for future progress.
