Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Louisiana are conversational in nature. Group leaders will begin by sharing a key topic related to alcoholism and recovery, often reading a related passage from an AA text, such as Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. After they share their reflections on the topic, they’ll invite others to participate.

Open: Open AA meetings in Louisiana are available to anyone who wants to learn more about the program and how its recovery model works. Participants can include individuals seeking treatment for alcohol addiction as well as nonalcoholics interested in the 12 step program.

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.
