Types of AA Meetings

Open: In Kentucky, anyone who wants to learn more about AA and the 12 step recovery model can attend an open AA meeting. These meetings are available to all members of the public, including alcoholics and nonalcoholics. In addition to providing practical tools and tips for recovery, they also help observers to better understand the program and its basic structure.

Speaker: Kentucky AA centers often include speakers in their programs. Through a blend of humor, charm, faith, and raw emotions, speakers can motivate listeners to strengthen their sobriety.

Wheelchair Access: In Kentucky, AA centers may provide wheelchair access for non-ambulatory clients. Access may include ramps, designated parking spaces, and a safe layout for meeting halls, restrooms, and other amenities.
