Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In Mississippi, closed AA meetings are only available to AA members and people who recognize they have an alcohol addiction and want to seek help. The discussions are informal in nature and everyone is invited to share their personal reflections, challenges, and hopes for the future.

Open: In Mississippi, open AA meetings allow all interested community members to come together and learn more about what AA entails and how its recovery model works. In addition to individuals seeking support for alcohol addiction, this may include nonalcoholic friends, family members, and loved ones of AA members.

Wheelchair Access: Mississippi AA meetings may include wheelchair access for non-ambulatory clients. These features can include designated parking, ramps, and an open floor plan for easy navigation.
