Types of AA Meetings

Child-Friendly: Child-friendly AA meetings allow each member to bring up to one child to the meeting, with the expectation that the discussion will not feature experiences or language that are inappropriate for the child. Formal childcare may not be available, but the member can watch over her child while participating in the discussion.

Daily Reflections: Daily Reflections is an AA text that compiles insight, experience, and encouragement from various members. Selected contents may be topics of discussions in AA meetings. Members can also adapt reflections into their daily activities.

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in North Dakota allow members to share their stories, encourage one another, and offer hope for the future. They center around one subject related to alcoholism and recovery, often taken from an AA text, such as Daily Reflections. Leaders begin by sharing first, then others can participate.

Open: In North Daokta, open AA meetings are available to any member of the community, including both alcoholics and nonalcoholics. As members share their experiences, observers can learn more about the AA recovery model and how the program works.

Wheelchair Access: North Dakota AA centers provide non-ambulatory clients with wheelchair access. These features generally consist of exterior ramps, designated parking spots, and open layouts for full participation.
