Friday Night Men’s Meeting

Types of AA Meetings

Closed: Closed AA meetings in Vermont are only available for members of AA and individuals with alcoholism who are ready to find help. Leaders facilitate the discussions, which incorporate themes related to addiction, recovery, and hope for the future.

Discussion: In Vermont, AA discussion meetings give all members the opportunity to share their thoughts on a specific, addiction-related topic. Leaders will organize and guide the meetings, often referring back to AA texts such as the Big Book or Daily Reflections.

Men: Select AA chapters have designed 12 Step Programs that focus on men’s alcohol use disorder. In Vermont, men of all ages can participate in these meetings at no charge.

Wheelchair Access: In Vermont, non-ambulatory clients may attend their AA meetings. Centers provide wheelchair access with exterior ramps, designated parking, and open floor plans for safe navigation in meeting halls, restrooms, and amenities.
