Types of AA Meetings

12 Steps & 12 Traditions: Missouri's AA programs offer 12 Step and Tradition programs that provide a pathway to sobriety for those in need. AA meetings offer a supportive community for individuals and their loved ones, promoting understanding and healing.

Big Book: Missouri AA programs often have Big Book discussions to inspire clients. The Big Book contains dozens of stories about women and men who overcame alcohol use disorder.

Closed: Closed AA meetings in Missouri are not available to the general public and observers are not allowed. The only people who can attend are members of AA and individuals seeking help for alcohol addiction. The discussions are informal and group participation is encouraged.

Literature: Missouri literature-guided AA meetings are community support meetings for people who are affected by alcohol addiction. These group meetings study the Big Book of AA and other AA literature while offering a 12-step addiction recovery program. All are welcome to attend at no cost.

Step Meeting: Missouri AA centers often involve step meetings, in which groups discuss their experience in various stages of the 12 Step Program. Members can strategize about individual and group interventions to improve their recovery for the next meeting.
