Types of AA Meetings

Closed: Closed AA meetings in Rhode Island are not available to the general public. Participation is limited to AA members and people seeking help for alcohol addiction. Discussions focus on alcoholism and related topics that are best understood by members with similar experiences.

Men: Rhode Island AA centers provide free 12 Step Programs for participants recovering from alcohol use disorder. Select groups are reserved only for men, so that men of all ages can discuss issues pertaining to their health.

Step Meeting: Rhode Island AA groups use step meetings within the 12 Step Program process. Clients discuss how their experience matches the steps as discussed in AA literature and make suggestions on how to improve their resilience for the next meeting.
