Types of AA Meetings
Big Book: In Illinois, AA meetings often feature discussions centered on the Big Book. Clients read this collection of stories about men and women who overcame alcohol use disorder for inspiration.
Closed: Closed AA meetings in Illinois are not open to outside observers. Instead, only AA members or individuals looking for help with a drinking problem are invited to attend. The discussions center around topics related to alcoholism and recovery and are of particular value to newcomers.
LGBTQ: Selected AA chapters focus on providing a safe space for the LGBTQ+ community, and generally welcome LGBTQ+ allies. These groups prioritize members’ recovery and sobriety within a non-heteronormative context.
Newcomer: AA newcomer meetings in Illinois allow members to share about the program with individuals who are just starting their recovery from alcohol addiction. Experienced members normally lead the meetings, which may be structured around Step 1, Step 2, and Step 3 of the AA recovery model.
