Beyond Belief: A Secular Meeting for Atheists and Agnostic Members of AA Group

Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in New Hampshire focus on one specific topic related to alcohol addiction and recovery. These topics normally come from an AA text, such as the Big Book. The leader will share the topic, add their personal insights, and open the floor for members to share reflections.

Literature: Literature-guided AA meetings in New Hampshire are peer support meetings for people who are impacted by alcohol addiction, including those suffering from alcoholism and those who have loved ones addicted to alcohol. Free to attend, these group meetings study AA literature such as the Big Book of AA, AA workbooks, and other writings by AA founders and leaders.

Secular: Secular AA meetings lack a faith-based component of healing and tend to focus on practical experiences and challenges. Secular meetings are usually attended by atheist, agnostic, and non-religious members.
