Grupo Primera Tradicion

Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Indiana give members the opportunity to share their insights on a particular topic related to alcohol addiction recovery. The group leader will normally open the session by expanding upon a topic from an AA text, such as the Big Book. Then, others can provide insights as they feel led.

Open: In Indiana, open AA meetings are not limited to individuals with alcohol addictions only. Instead, anyone from the public is invited to come and learn more about the organization, including how the 12 step recovery model operates and what it entails. This may include the friends, family members, and loved ones of current members or any community member seeking more information.

Spanish: Spanish AA meetings are intended for members who have limited English-speaking skills or those who choose to participate in Spanish. Other features of the center, such as AA literature or sign-language interpreters, may or may not be available in Spanish.

Wheelchair Access: Indiana AA meetings may have wheelchair access, which includes ramps and designated parking spots. The center’s layout allows non-ambulatory clients to safely navigate throughout AA events.
