Colfax Group-Tuesday

Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In Minnesota, closed AA meetings are restricted to members and people who recognize they have a drinking problem and want to stop. Newcomers can ask questions to more experienced members, gaining insight and advice as they begin their recovery journey.

Men: Minnesota AA meetings provide free 12 Step Programs for participants impacted by alcohol use disorder. Some groups may be designated only for men, so that men of all ages can discuss issues that relate to their health and recovery.

Step Meeting: AA programs in Minnesota feature step meetings to assist members’ recovery. In these meetings, members participate in group readings, converse about their experience and relate it to the text, and suggest ways for future improvement.
