All In AA

Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Kentucky give all members the chance to reflect on their alcohol addiction recovery journeys and share their hopes for the future. Leaders will normally open the meetings by reading from an AA text, such as the Big Book. Once they share their input on the topic, they’ll allow others to join the discussion.

Literature: Literature-based AA meetings in Kentucky are peer support meetings for people who are impacted by alcohol addiction. These community meetings, free for all to attend, are based on a 12-step recovery program and emphasize AA literature, such as the Big Book of AA and other writings by AA founders and leaders.
